Pain Of Salvation - Cribcaged Lyrics

Guitar and keyboard work is so good, especially during the solo

Ou mai gód

What a masterpiece

I love that despite how incredibly vulgar this song is, it doesn't actually feel vulgar.

"The only cribs that make a difference
Where the magic really happenes
Don't come with a Mercedes Benz
Or a wide screen showing nothing
Showing nothing"
♡ )':

The only cribs that we should care for
Are the ones that we are here for
The ones belonging to our children
That do that we do, scar from our wounds

The only cribs that make a difference
Where the magic really happens
Don't come with a Mercedes Benz
Or a wide screen showing nothing
Showing nothing

I'm sick of home control devices
Sick of sickening home designers
Sick of drugs and gold and strip poles
Sick of homies, sick of poses

Despite the nodding staff that serves you
Despite your name on clothes and perfume
Despite the way the press observes you

You're just people
You're just people
You're just people

You're just people
You're just people
You're just people

Successful people
Dressed up people
Smiling people
Famous people
Red carpet people
Wealthy people
Important people
But still just people

So fuck the million dollar kitchen
Fuck the Al Pacino posters
Fuck the drugs, the gold, the strip poles
Fuck the homies, fuck the poses
Fuck the walls they build around them
Fuck the bedroom magic nonsense
I don't want to hear their voices
As long as they vote with their wallets

Fuck the silly throw you out joke
Fuck the framed cigar DeNiro smoked
Fuck their lack of originality and personality
Fuck this travesty
Fuck this new norm
Fuck conformity
Fuck their Kristal
Fuck their sordity
Fuck the way they fuck equality
Fuck their freebie gear
Fuck the ones they wear

You're just people
You're just people
You're just people

You're just people
You're just people
You're just people

Successful people
Dressed up people
Smiling people
Famous people
Red carpet people
Wealthy people
Important people
But still just people

Messed up people
Shallow people
Stupid people
Plastic people
Meta people
Theta people
Therapyople
Entropiople

Oh, fuck the ones they wear
I'm cribcaged
Cribcaged

The only cribs that we should care for
Are the ones that we are here for
The ones belonging to our children
That do what we do, scar from our wounds

This is the most unneccessary pos song.
You just dont give a fuck to Justin Bieber and Kim Kardashian
No need to write a song for them and their audiences.

This song is NOT for Bieber or Kardashian or their audiences. Few of those people would understand let alone appreciate the multi layered epicness of a piece like this. They would fail to be insulted adequately by it.

I don't know how he can sing such meaningful things and not lose pace.

SHUDDER ORGANISATION S TO SEE YOU AGAIN 34/30TH LOL

Love the old PoS albums but this song is awesome.

Successful people, dressed up people, smiling people, famous people, red carpet people, wealthy people, important people.
...But still just people.

Grande Letra! uma das melhores!

güzel...

For creating unconventional REAL Stuff, esteemed this song ＡＳ genuine cowrie.❆.~`o`~…(⊙_⊙;)…

seviyorsan git konuş POS.

Hahhhahh güzeldi:D

we're just people...

Essa Banda é a melhor , já fui no show do iron, pearl jam Dr Sim angra shaman entre outras, Mais o show do pain of Salvation foi o melhor ,Claro para mim mais as outras bandas foi nota 10.

Ummm, this band is not christian at ALL.

danielalien NNNNNNNOOOOOOOO far from it my friend

Thank god they aren't.

Dude. The hell, man?

boring boring boring like every christ music fuck it

Stefanie Latino you obviously haven't heard their other songs. They are in no way a Christ band

the only band that can say 21 times the word 'fuck' and be so nostalgic at the same time.

Just found this band today and I can't stop listening to this song. Absolutely beautiful.

Soori for my attitude this after noon... Keypad control... Got it too easy .. But freedom furniture of speacvh like wallace....bravehurt lupe fiasco.... Mercy on my soul everydai hyundaui korean ride n flag

-| £ OOO

thats a good question my friend :P
i suppose chuck norris likes daniel very much ... that explains everything

every album and the concepts behind them are pure genious in every way

And still just people.

But still just people, fuckers.

Spettacolare, emozionante! :-)

MONUMENTALE! Profonda ed emozionante!

Such an amazing song!!!!!!!!!

This is my favourite Christmas song.

@EOGS4492 I couldn't agree more.

the thing i like most in PoS is that i don't like every song ... they change, they do experiment.

love this song.
After some listens Scarsick is brilliant.

perfect...

Song reminds me to never lose the common touch how much ever important a person one becomes

Ironically, Daniel is one of those whom we (PoS Fans) admire and care about. I think he is very socialistic unlike Al Pacino or Charlie Sheen...

Hail Daniel

HOLY SHIT Y Y DIDNT SOMEONE TELL ME ABT THIS BAND .......... THIS IS WHAT I DREAMED MUSIC COULD ACHEIVE ..... THIS BANDS IS SOOO DAMN ARTSY and I'm finding abt this shit now.

Damn man, this really touched me, i don't understand some analogies because i don't live in the states but this is a huge being yourself statement

гениална музика друго не ммога да добавя

POS is simply awsome. Thumps up if you agree. :)

When the album first came out I absolutely hated it, but now I love almost every song on it!

@Secnateb being the fan of a band always means that you hate their album lol

@EOGS4492 Now you said it all.

@EOGS4492
beautifully stated!

Аааааааааа!!!!!! Обожаю ее!

@bahbuhbih Well, s are you :P

i think this song is a salvation from pain from those who can see whats wrong with our world today

Greate song :D

if PoS objective in this album was to make music as good as the lyrics, they did it very well. but now i know i won't buy the next album. people that like to eat poop because it looks creative enjoy this i bet

I enjoy it because it sounds good

this music is absolute crap. PERIOD.

I think PoS just summed up my oppinion of the entire mainstrem media in one song...Very Nice!

bela musica !

I can't see why you were a "fan" to begin with.
Nothing personal, I just don't think that PoS are entirely aimed towards you.

"keeping their existant fan-base"

Not myself if they continue to do things like this album.

agreed.

Actually, I do happen to like the lyrics on Scarsick very much. And in fact I happen to like the music very much too. That makes a perfect combination for me.

If you do not like his message, then be glad that you do not have to listen to it. Be glad you happen to live in a free country where both you and Daniel have to right to speak your minds. And both of you have the right to disagree with each other...

Btw, do feel personally offended while sitting in your million dollar kitchen...?

PoS "fans" just don't understand this CD... it takes more time than it looks

Best. Punchline. Ever.

It's funny that this is the only album of PoS that I like. And i like a lot! Spitfall it's bombastic

i've heard all their albums. it's all a matter of opinion. i like it all for the most part

i think this album is also good as the old ones..
imo ashes isn't such a good song compared to Undertow or perfect element..even flame to the moth from this album is cooler for me x)

Really?, do PoS fans outhere reject this song?...
why?
I think it is a very beautiful song!

pos fans don't like this cd? wow...

indeed.This is a great song with great lyrics

I think it´s one of their best songs.
The whole album is kickass! Even if a lot of pos-fans dont like it! I think its great! Please take a closer look to those great lyrics!
