A couple of the lyric cards I got with No Code are blacked out. What gives?
The cards for the songs “In My Tree” & “Present Tense” are not supplied with lyrics. Presumably, that would be because of the band’s long standing position that listeners should “feel” the songs and interpret (not translate) their own meanings. These songs appear to be introspective to Eddie and perhaps he feels too personally attached to share the lyrics with the world in printed form. This was the case with Release and you can’t find those lyrics in any official song or tab book.
