The Doors'un The end'i bir söylentiye göre intihar edilmeden önce en çok dinlenen parçadır ancak ben bu şarkının yanlış anlaşıldığı için böyle sonuçlar doğurduğu fikrindeyim.
Jim morrison"hayatının bir noktasında herkese siktir çekmen gerekebilir, bunlara ailen de dahildir" demektedir ve "come on, baby, take a chance with us" diyerek "kendi şansını yarat ve değişim senin olsun" der. sonunda korkusuzca adım attığın yolda bulduğun kendinsindir ve bu yolda artık ne kahkahanın, ne de masum yalanların yeri vardır. bu aynı zamanda kendimizi öldürmeye çalıştığımız gecelerin de sonudur. mavi otobüs yolcusunu çağırmaktadır, kişinin hayatında yeni bir çağ başlamaktadır.
come on, turn the lights out, man
turn it way down
hey mister lightman
you gotta turn those lights way down, man!
hey, i'm not kidding, you gotta turn the lights out
come on!
what do we care...?
this is the end, beautiful friend
this is the end, my ownly friend, the end
of our elaborate plans, the end
of everything that stands, the end
no safety or surprise, the end
i'll never look into your eyes again
can you picture what will be
so limitless and free
desperately in need of some stranger's hand
in a desperate land
come on, baby!
and we were in this house and there was a sound like
silverware being dropped on linoleum, and then
somebody ran into the room and they said
"have you seen the accident outside?"
and everybody said:
"hey man, have you seen the accident outside?"
have you seen the accident outside
seven people took a ride
six bachelors and their bride
seven people took a ride
sever people died
don't let me die in an automobile
i wanna lie in an open field
want the snakes to suck my skin
want the worms to be my friends
want the birds to eat my eyes
as here i lie
the clouds fly by
ode to a grasshopper...
i think i'll open a little shop,
a little place where they sell things
and i think i'll call it "grasshopper"...
i have a big green grasshopper out there
have you seen my grasshopper, mama?
looking real good...
(oh, i blew it, it's a moth)
that's alright, he ain't got long to go, so we'll forgive him.
ensenada
the dog crucifix
the dead seal
ghosts of the dead car sun
stop the card
i'm getting out, i can't take it
hey, look out, there's somebody coming
and there's nothing you can do about it...
the killer awoke before dawn
he put his boots on
he took a face from the ancient gallery
and he...he walked on down the hallway, baby
came to a door
he looked inside
father?
yes, son?
i wanna kill you
mother...i want to...
fuck you, mama, all night long
beware, mama
gonna love you, baby, all night
come on, baby, take a chance with us
come on, baby, take a chance with us
come on, baby, take a chance with us
meet me at the back of the blue bus
meet me at the back of the blue bus,
blue rock,
blue bus,
blue rock
blue bus
kill! kill!
this is the end, beautiful friend
this is the end, my only friend, the end
hurts to set you free
but you'll never follow me
the end of laughter and soft cries
the end of nights we tried to die
this is the end..
simple paln in self titled albümünden çok hareketli, güzel bir şarkı.
I've been trying to tell you something
But you never understand
I feel like we've been going 'round in circles
You look at me like I've become
A stranger on the streets,
A skeleton that's been hiding in your closet
I see you next to me but still you feel so far away
Where did we go wrong?
(Where did we go wrong?)
I guess this is the part where you look at me
And say goodbye
Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end, whoa
Girl you know it's not so bad
It's not the end, whoa
No it's not the end
I've been around the world
And I've seen so many things
I can't even tell you where I'm going
But no matter where I'm heading
And no matter what I do
Something keeps me coming back to you
I see you next to me but still you feel so far away
Where did we go wrong?
(Where did we go wrong?)
I guess this is the part where you look at me
And say goodbye
Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end, whoa
Girl you know it's not so bad
It's not the end, whoa
You know it's not the end
Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end, whoa
Girl you know it's not so bad
It's not the end, whoa
You know it's not the end
What can I do when you're gone
When it feels so wrong
What can I say
To make you wanna stay
So what can I do
Don't leave me this way
Cause it feels so wrong
Let's stop all these games
Cause I just can't say goodbye
Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end, whoa
Girl you know it's not so bad
It's not the end, whoa
You know it's not the end
Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end, whoa
Girl you know it's not so bad
It's not the end, whoa
You know it's not the end
the doors'un dinlerken gerçek anlamda uçuran şarkısı. o nasıl bir müzik? o nasıl sözler ya? kendinden geçirir, düşündürür ve şarkı bittiğinde hem huzurlu olursunuz hem de bir şeyler içinize batar. ne olduğunu anlayamazsınız ama aynı anda hem mükemmel hem de boktan hissedersiniz. ve saatlerce şarkıda bağımlılık yapan yeri bulmak için tekrar tekrar dinlersiniz. ama bulamazsınız ve sonundaki "the end" ile şarkı da sizde bitersiniz.
doors'un en güzel şarkılarından bir tanesi. sözleri de şöyledir:
This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
Ill never look into your eyes...again
Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need...of some...strangers hand
In a...desperate land
Lost in a roman...wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain, yeah
Theres danger on the edge of town
Ride the kings highway, baby
Weird scenes inside the gold mine
Ride the highway west, baby
Ride the snake, ride the snake
To the lake, the ancient lake, baby
The snake is long, seven miles
Ride the snake...hes old, and his skin is cold
The west is the best
The west is the best
Get here, and well do the rest
The blue bus is callin us
The blue bus is callin us
Driver, where you taken us
The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he
He walked on down the hall, and
And he came to a door...and he looked inside
Father, yes son, I want to kill you
Mother...i want to...fuck you
Cmon baby, take a chance with us
Cmon baby, take a chance with us
Cmon baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus
Doin a blue rock
On a blue bus
Doin a blue rock
Cmon, yeah
Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill
This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
It hurts to set you free
But youll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die
