Ween - I Don't Want It Lyrics






Did we miss the moon?
I'd lie in your arms if I could
Such a common pain
Repeats itself again and again

Flowers grow in the springtime and leaves fall from the trees
I've been GONE for so long, you just threw away the keys
I understand it, but I don't want it

I know it so well, you tripped me and I laughed when you fell
This isn't how it should be
I've let you drift so far, from me

But please hold onto the memories
Before we really crash and burn
We've got ourselves so wrapped up that we've forgotten how to learn
I understand it, but I don't want it

Ween I Don't Want It Comments
  1. l.... ....

    I've tried to kill so many ween songs by overplaying them and none of them die. its weird

  2. C.... P....

    I just discovered Quebec and White Pepper about 2 days ago. It's my current obsession. I'm a Ween fan for life from Henceforth. So great to find such amazing music. I can't wait to move on to the other albums once these are forever etched in my heart.

    A-did we miss the moon?
    I'd lie in your arms if I could now
    Such a common pain
    Repeats itself again and again now

    Flowers grow in the springtime
    And leaves fall from the trees
    I've been gone for so long
    You just threw away the keys

    I understand it
    But I don't want it

    I know it so well
    You tripped me and I laughed when you fell now
    This isn't how it should be
    I've let you drift so far from me now

    But please, hold onto the memories
    Before we really crash and burn
    We've got ourselves so wrapped up
    That we've forgotten how to learn

    I understand it
    But I don't want it

    This song is just a piece of life we all have to live at some point. Thank you gene for the lyrics and the guitar solo. It’s helping me right now.

  5. M.... B....

    My ex introduced me to Ween and I've always specifically liked this song out of them all. Its breaks my heart and it's so beautiful. I love beautiful songs this is definitely one of them.

  6. W.... P....

    Perfect drum sound.

  7. T.... ....

    chris bell but it’s a meme but it’s also beautiful

  8. J.... o....

    I love bands that do so many different types of songs!

  9. B.... M....

    This is easily one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard

  10. e.... ....

    When you google a random quote from Game of Thrones and find an actually good song.

  11. s.... ....

    Jon Snow's favorite song

  12. W.... S....

    This is about the writers of Game of Thrones, and Jon Snow. Brilliant.

  13. I.... ....

    Some say Jon Snow wrote this on his way back beyond the wall.

  14. P.... M....

    My best friend, my brother. The oldest friend i know, used to play this on his guitar as wed all lie around his house just hanging out.
    We all knew life's fucked up, but we all knew we'd pull through.
    He got into bad positions and happens to be locked away for a good 8 years, :(
    Gonna be a long lonely 8 for us all,
    Ween will always bring me back to those days.
    We understood it,
    We didn't want it.

  15. M.... y....

    Please hold on to the memories before we really crash and burn.. ugh ween pullin at my heartstrings.. then that solo of course. It’s pure bliss

  16. k.... r....

    fucking guitar solo

  17. R.... H....

    It’s amazing that these are the same guys that made the incredibly silly and annoying “daisies” I wrote them off when I first heard that song and that was a HUGE mistake. Gene and Dean are incredible musicians. Don’t make the same mistake I did!

  18. M.... ....

    This is the exact moment when anything all falls apart of collapses
    From a break up, to how you acted or lived, to even who you where friends with. Jesus it hurts to understand but to not want it you only just seek the oposite but a part of you knows its not right. Youre all fucking conscious to everything but you accept it but still see how fucked and how this isnt what life should be like. We loose ourself and we must move on even if we dont want it.

  19. m.... ....

    this is a criminally underrated ween song

  20. M.... Q....

    That guitar solo. WOW!

  21. G.... M....

    Damn, I Love Ween.

  22. N.... a....

    Such a great song.

  23. T.... ....

    Ween is incredibly powerful.

  24. l.... m....

    Honestly one of the greatest songs of all time, and I don't say that lightly

  25. j.... r....

    SO MANY FEELS

  26. J.... G....

    I'm going to see WEEN in 123 days.

    J.... G....

    how was it?

  27. B.... L....

    Such a talented Duo :)

  28. C.... T....

    Perfect soundtrack to a divorce..

  29. N.... D....

    Please hold onto the memories
    Before we really crash and burn
    We got ourselves so wrapped up
    That we've forgotten how to learn

    If you haven't lived with the weight of these lyrics on your heart, you're fortunate.

  30. A.... F....

    se siente genial ser el único colombiano por aquí. Me encanta esta canción

    this song reminds me of so many long special amazing nights when I felt so free my dearest and truest friend had a studio apartment in a church chapel in Salt Lake City off of 1300 So 9 E he had the most magnificent sound system we called it Audiology pharmacology Merlot & Percocet opps ive said to much best nights of myife

  47. F.... ....

    wow, must have listened to this ten times in a row, the guitar solo gets me everytime. Gonna listen to it another ten to twenty times!

  48. E.... T....

    I've always loved this song. I just got dumped. I understand it now. But I don't want it.

    E.... T....

    Gener was going through a divorce when he made it

    E.... T....

    What a gay comment

    E.... T....

    Thurman Murman Youtube just wouldn’t be the same without comments like these <3

    E.... T....

    Elitist Trash same man...

    E.... T....

    Also just got dumped

  49. G.... ....

    Christmas 2003 and my mother in law at the time bought me this album for my Christmas, what a gal :)

  50. T.... G....

    This song eats away at my heart in the most comforting of ways. I don't want it, either

    T.... G....

    When I first saw them play this song live and found out Gener does the solo; I lost my shit. And he nailed it. Amazing tone!

    T.... G....

    Be my gf please

    T.... G....

    Gener does this solo? Oh no shit, I can't believe that never occurred to me before now! I read your comment Andrew, just seconds before getting to the solo on this particular listen... probably number 1,476-7 not sure of the official count and as I listen to it with Andrew's revelation echoing through my corridors of consciousness, it's so blatantly OBVIOUSLY Gener that I am reeling in utter shame and disbelief at my obtuseness in not having realized this previously. That fat and fuzzy royal rich tonal quality is unmistakeably the signature sound of a Les Paul and not Deaner's Fender. And the style of the playing itself is beyond a dead giveaway. Simple, basic, yet very melodic and every note on the brink of a supernova explosion of gamma ray emotions that never before have been restrained and contained within the confines of a single frequency of any bandwidth. The only way such a thing be even possible is by the power and blessing of Boognish. Its too bad they weren't able to wield the sceptre of wealth with such finesse and agility. But the end is not yet, which sadly is tomorrow for their Shpongled breathren from across the pond. Anybody gonna be there at Red Rocks for that farewell? Anybody think its another false finale' and we'll be Shpongled yet again? Anybody wanna see Ween collaborate with Shpongle and bring the Boognish before the Shpongleyes to give mankind the final push into eternal impunity and everlasting joy and bliss? Prepare your spirit for the ascent ionto hyperdimensional BoogniShpongleXiconspiracy Theory. It is rumored to be imagined beyond the limits of reality, for those who have heard of such inuendo. Peace uP <^>

  51. J.... A....

    "please hold onto the memories before we really crash & burn"..........what a guitar solo. Heartfelt, warm, fuzzy, sad & inspiring in equal measure. The magic of Ween.

  52. B.... ....

    This is one of the most incredible guitar solos I've ever heard, it takes an already great song into the stratosphere and leaves it there. Makes me tear up every time.

    B.... ....

    Here here and a fuck yeah are in order to your recognition, sir.

    B.... ....

    And it's Gener playing it! Never realized that until seeing them live a few years ago. They went into an acoustic set for a few songs and then went back into electric with that solo. Pretty effin' awesome.

    B.... ....

    and its JUST MELODY. and tone. and volume. but we make this shit way harder than it actually is. any of us could do this, technically speaking. what makes it special is trusting what you hear, in your own music head, without worrying if its "good" or not.

    B.... ....

    @Patrick O'Malley The way Gener stepped forward for his solo and blew our faces off at Edgefield, OR last year was one of my favorite Ween moments ever.

    B.... ....

    LMMFAO @ YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!! any of us could do it hahahahahahah lmao shows what you know.............

  53. P.... D....

    Very uplifting song for me. Puts me in my happy place!!

  54. J.... T....

    god damn, what a fuckin band

  55. S.... W....

    The feedback screech that brings the solo in makes my heart leapbto my throat and every hair I have stand on end...Ween, you done right by me, endlessly.

    S.... W....

    +Spencer Winslow Me too man! Gets me every single time

    S.... W....

    Came here to say pretty much the same thing. He tears into it and I get a transdermal celebration every time.

    S.... W....

    Holy fuck, yes! Every time!

    S.... W....

    Aaron Freeman on the solo

  56. c.... ....

    Three people didn't want it

  57. M.... P....

    That guitar solo opens up such space in my mind. It's gorgeous :)

    M.... P....

    Molly Phoenix thats a Gener solo bubby :)

  58. W.... P....

    Doesn't get any better than this...

  59. S.... ....

  61. N.... R....

    Ween write some of the goofiest (but genius) songs out there, but when they want, some of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. I also love Stay Forever.

  62. E.... J....

    I don't WANT to need to listen to this song right now, but I do.

  63. c.... ....

    drugs are bad, m'kay.

    c.... ....

  65. T.... O....

    O man, it was AWESOME. i am so glad i went,.

  66. T.... O....

    i seen em live at arogon palace and Gener was drunk and botched it,, type in " ween 6/25/2010 aragon ballroom 2cam complete " and go to time mark 1hr 24 min 36 sec.... ull see what i mean .... this was the last tour they had,, and this is why they broke up,.,, gener was so smashed at the show after this, 2 days later in vancover, they left him on stage to mumble about by himself, and they never recovered...

    T.... O....

    The Official ET Whisperer Channel - Rob Gauthier just went to see a show not long ago. Glad they recovered :)

  67. T.... O....

    i know, i seen em live at arogon palace and he was drunk and botched it,, type in " ween 6/25/2010 aragon ballroom 2cam complete " and go to time mark 1hr 24 min 36 sec.... ull see what i mean

  68. T.... O....

    I dont listen to anything but ween anymore, they have got me through a 8 year drug addiction, several almost divorces with my wife, death of best friend and family, and my sons physical issues he has had.. they are my soul.. i listen to them and i vibrate on a much higher level... i listen and my soul is at peace.. ween is always been my addiction, my love, my hate, and my souls great escape.. from 93-- now.. i will never stop listening,. it would be the same as cutting out my own heart.. LOVE

    T.... O....

    The Official ET Whisperer Channel - Rob Gauthier God bless you man

    T.... O....

    Amen, brother

    T.... O....

    so much real

    T.... O....

    almost like reading my own words.. this album, and white pepper are soundtracks to a segment of my life that changed everything in such a way...loss of a marriage, 2 friends suicides, my own struggles with chemicals and confusion...you said it. I'll shut up and listen.

    T.... O....

    The Official ET Whisperer Channel - Rob Gauthier I feel ya brother.

  69. J.... B....

    Number 17,000 - and going strong. Ween. Yes.

  70. T.... ....

    And to think, this is the band that did Fat Lenny and the HIV Song.

    Bands that aren't bound by genre are the most respectable.

  71. s.... ....

    And it's Gener playing it too.

  72. t.... ....

    favourite guitar solo of all time

  73. P.... D....

    I thought the day would never come but... Long live Ween!!! Brings a tear to my fucking eye.
