The Smashing Pumpkins – The Celestials lyrics
On the day that you were born
They built an empire off a scream
I can't explain
Endlessly they'll set you free
Give you reason to believe
This empty place
I may seem unafraid
And I may seem unashamed
But I will be special k
Never let the summer catch you down
Never let your thoughts run free
Even when their numbers draw you out
Everything I want is free
Til the end
Til the end
Til the end
I'm gonna love you 101 percent
I'm gonna love you til this ends
Take a chance if you should go
Face upon your happy home
The scanners wait

Selfishly they might concede
You were always on your own
You can't escape
I may seem unafraid
And I may seem unashamed
But I will be special k
Never let the summer catch you down
Never let your thoughts run free
Even when their numbers draw you out
Everything I want is free
You're not me and never ever will you be
I'm gonna find you and never run against
I'm gonna find you til the end
Til the end
Til the end
Never let the summer catch you down
Never let your thoughts run free
Even while their numbers call you out
Everything I want is free
Free you're free with me
You're free with me

    I actually have some feelings with real meanings behind this song, as of recent. I'm extremely terrified for this summer because the guy I've had feelings for about forever now is finally going out with me, and I remember how last summer tore us apart. I'm actually really hoping it doesn't. Kind of referring to "Never let the summer catch you down". And also when it says "Everything I want is free... 'til the end" Like... well love is free, or at least you think it is, until you have to start sacrificing for the ones you love. And that's kind of how I'm feeling right now.
