QUOTE OF THE NOW

"Our life evokes our character. You find out more about yourself as you go on. That's why it's good to be able to put yourself in situations that will evoke your higher nature rather than your lower. 'Lead us not into temptation.'" Joseph Campbell

Sex on fire, huh?

Sex On Fire - Kings of Leon

"It was actually going to be "Set Us on Fire", but one of the sound mixers in the studio walked in as we were playing and said, "Sex on Fire", huh?" And it just kind of became a running joke, and we stuck with it."


 
Lay where you're laying, don't make a sound  
I know they're watching, they're watching  
All the commotion, the kiddie like play  
Has people talking, talking
You, your sex is on fire

 
The dark of the alley, the breaking of day 

The head while I'm driving, I'm driving 
Soft lips are open, knuckles are pale  
Feels like you're dying, you're dying
You, your sex is on fire  

Consumed with what's to transpire
 
Hot as a fever, rattling bones  

I could just taste it, taste it 
If it's not forever, if it's just tonight  
Oh, it's still the greatest, the greatest, the greatest
You, your sex is on fire  

And you, your sex is on fire 
Consumed with what's to transpire
And you, your sex is on fire  

Consumed with what's to transpire
