Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture R.I.P Dimebag D Professional	#1 by R.I.P Dimebag Darrell at Sep 28, 2007 at 2:20 AM EST
	Yah James does curse a bit in his songs, look at just the Master Of Puppets ablum's lyrics. A couple songs from there have one or two and also So What and other that were said.

No Picture Kyle Average	#2 by Kyle Bish at Oct 2, 2007 at 5:46 AM EST
	i agree this the lyrics of metliphanatik plus the song song is about the way you should not just sit down and look at everyone else have fun. chill out have fun yourself and have yourself a ball.

No Picture bec Average	#3 by bec madden at Oct 2, 2007 at 8:16 AM EST
	This song kicks ass, The solo is just so fucking cool. You can just imagine Hammett rising on some huge kind of plinth as he plays it. Very good though,one of the best songs on Reload. That bluesy opening riff is fucking awesome.

No Picture Austin Rhythm Player	#4 by Austin at Oct 5, 2007 at 3:53 AM EST
	erm aint those lyrics from St Anger!???????

No Picture ♥brian Lead Player	#5 by ♥brian♥ ******** at Oct 7, 2007 at 8:07 AM EST
	i think i read somewhere that this song is based on JaymZ getting burned during a concert in Detroit

No Picture dan Average	#6 by dan evans at Oct 12, 2007 at 12:26 PM EST
	im with Kookkie on this one, its about living every day of your life to the fullest. And yes, James has cussed in songs before (Fuel, Whiplash, Am I Evil, So What, Damage Inc.) i know theres a few more, but im just naming some of them. I doubt the sexual inuendo, because Carpe Diem means "sieze the day" and i dont see how any of it is anything sexual. And whoever submited this fucked up the lyrics pretty bad.

No Picture † james † Average	#7 by † james † at Oct 14, 2007 at 8:17 AM EST
	p.s. - "shit" is that the first time James has ever cursed in one of his songs?!?!? I doubt it, but I've never noticed it!

No Picture Turbo Grom Wanna Be	#8 by Turbo Grom at Oct 15, 2007 at 12:09 PM EST
	bleedingthroughsin, he uses the exact same line in Damage Inc. and St. Anger

No Picture Ben Rhythm Player	#9 by Ben Jammin at Oct 16, 2007 at 2:13 AM EST
	Take it from the fanatic the lyrics should look somethin like this: Hit dirt Shake tree Split sky Part sea Strip smile Lose cool Bleed the day And break the rule Live, win Dare, fail Eat the dirt And bite the nail Then make me miss you Then make me miss you So wash your face away with dirt It don't feel good until it hurts So take this world and shake it Come squeeze and suck the day Come carpe diem baby Draw lead Piss wine Sink teeth All mine Stoke fire Break neck Suffer through this Cheat on death Hug the curve Loose the time Tear the map And shoot the sign Then make me miss you Oh yeah Then make me miss you So wash your face away with dirt It don't feel good until it hurts So take this world and shake it Come squeeze and suck the day Come carpe diem baby Yeah, suck it Live, win Dare, fail Eat dirt Bite the nail Strip smile Lose cool Bleed the day And break the rule Hug the curve Loose the time Tear the map And shoot the sign Then make me miss you Come on, come on Then make me miss you So wash your face away with dirt It don't feel good until it hurts So take this world and shake it Come squeeze and suck the day Come make me miss you Come carpe diem baby Come carpe diem baby

No Picture Josh Average	#10 by Josh at Oct 18, 2007 at 11:49 AM EST
	it's actually "cheat on death" which would keep that number of cussing down....

No Picture JUSTIN Lead Player	#11 by JUSTIN LOCKHART at Oct 18, 2007 at 11:53 AM EST
	OMG just go to google, type "define: carpe diem" without the " marks and it'll tell you it literally means "sieze the day" so no more argueing!

No Picture Drennan Professional Badass	#12 by Drennan Bragg at Oct 18, 2007 at 5:45 PM EST
	nah dude one of the lines in Fuel is "fuck it man, White knuckles tight!" so it may be the second or third but your right they don't do alot of swearing in the actual lyrics of the songs...they seem to reserve most of that for when they're actually onstage or doing an interview..
