mewithoutYou is a post-hardcore band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania that formed in 2001. They are known for their warbling vocal style and introspective lyrics of lead vocalist Aaron Weiss, as well as their prominent bass riffs and atmospheric guitar.  mewithoutYou's current popularity can be attributed to their contact with their current record label Tooth And Nail Records and the release of their first two full length albums: [A--&gt;B] Life and Catch For Us The Foxes. Their third full length album, Brother, Sister, was released on September 26, 2006 by the aforementioned label.

mewithoutYou ist eine Indie-Rockband aus Philadelphia, Pennsylvania  Die Band besteht aus Sänger Aaron Weiss, Michael Weiss, Christopher Kleinberg (beide Gitarre), Grag Jehenian (Bass) und Rickie Mazzotta (Schlagzeug).  Obwohl man den Sound der Band sehr schwer einordnen kann, lässt sich doch sagen, dass Aarons Gesang die Musik von mewithoutYou vorwiegend prägt und charakterisiert. Ausschlaggebend dabei ist, dass er eher in drastischen abwechslungsreichen Tonlagen spricht, ja manchmal sogar jammert, als dass er tatsächlich singt.

intro: E
verse 
E
 Stitch up the nets but the patch won't stay

 As the nail beds rest in the calico hay
    A7           Am                   E
 The Fiji Mermaid dressed in macrame's

 Wading road in the fork and a bend

 In the spoon tern cut short as a shadow at noon
 A7                 Am
 Melting like wax as that once full moons
  E
 Now waning ersatz acts an insufferable bore

 Sharp Shots dull as a harlequins sword
       A7                  Am
 When doing as you please doesn't please you anymore

interlude: C G C A7 Am    C G C E
verse
E
 Stick of the match as the paraffin show

 Drop a nickel to watch the asparagus grow
      A7                 Am
 The stone in what shell?
                  E
 You sure like to know now don't you?


 A loom in the heir as the medicine came

 To the nest of the mare of the mystery claims
           A7                       Am
 But you'll miss having someone to blame
                  E
 For your sadness, now won't you?


 Well maybe there'll be a bakery hiring
        A7            Am
 We'll knead a little dough to get by

interlude: C G C A7 Am x2

verse
C                            E
 Did you come knocking on my door

 Or did I come to yours?
C                             E
 Whose ship came washed up on whose shore?

 And from what ocean floor?

Where we're the spiraling arms of all galaxies

And we're the microscopic sand

Little Moses drifts downstream in the Nile
Am                                     G
A fumbling reply -- an awkward, rigid laugh

As you plow some other field and try and forget my name,
see what harvest yields, and, supposing I'd do the same
I planted rows of peas, but by the first week of july -
they should have come up to my knees but they were maybe ankle high

Take the fingers from your flute to weave your colored yarns,
and boil down your fruit to preserves in mason jars
But now books are overdue and the goats are underfed...
the trap I set for you seems to have caught my leg instead

C        Em x 4

C    Em
AH!          x4


You're C door-without-C-key, C field-without-C-fence
You made a holy fool of me, and I've thanked you ever since
If she comes circling back, we'll end where we'd begun
Like two pennies on the train track the train crushed into one

Or if I'm a crown without a king, if I'm a broken, open seed
If I come without a thing, I come with all I need
No boat out in the blue, no place to rest your head
The trap I set for you seems to have caught my leg instead

C    Em
  AH!          x8

C       Em

Em over and over until end.

the day-help on The Coconut Estate

raked up the dried leaves that fell dead from the trees,

which they burned in a pile by the lake.

"Calling all volunteers who can carry back here,

the great mystery that's been lit once again."

One beetle emerged from the crowd

in a fashionable abdomen, shroud.
             Bm                                       A

I'll be back soon, successful and proud."

he crawled on all six as his wings had been burned

The deeply dissatisfied king
            A                              Bm
climbed the same stem to announce the same thing.
            Bm                                 A
But in his second appeal sought to sweeten the deal
       A                    Bm
with a silver padparadscha ring.

The lieutenant stepped out from the line

as he lassoed his thorax with twine,

thinking, "I'm stronger and braver and I'll earn the king's favor.

One day all he has will be mine."

But for all the lieutenant's conceit,

he too returned singed and admitting defeat.
           G                             Bm
"I had no choice, please believe, but retreat.

and it cracked like the thunder and bloodshot my eyes.

Though smothered with sticks, it advanced undeterred.

We sent for the great light and you bring us this?!

We didn't ask what it seems like, we asked what it is!"

His majesty's hour at last is drawn nigh.

The elegant queen took her leave from his side.
              C                          Em
Without understanding, but without asking why,
                   D                          A
she gathered their kids to come bid their goodbyes.
                   C                               Em
And the father explained, "You've been somewhat deceived,
                         D                            A
we've all called me your dad, but your true Dad's not me.
                    C                           Em
I lay next to your mom and your forms were conceived.
                   D                        A
Your Father's the light within all that you see.
                 C                       Em
He fills up the ponds as He empties the clouds;
               D                            A
holds without hands and He speaks without sounds.
                        C                           Em
He provides us with the cow's waste and coconuts to eat;
                     D                             A
giving one that nice salt taste, and the other is sweet.

Sends the black carriage the day death shows its face;
              D                         A
thinning our numbers with kindness and grace.

And just as a flower and its fragrance are one,

"Now distribute my scepter, my crown, and my throne

Without further hesitation, without looking back home,
                  D                       A
the king flew headlong into the blazing unknown.

And as the smoke king hurled higher and higher,
                   D                         A
the troops flying loops round the telephone wires;

They said, "Our beloved's not dead, but his highness instead,
           D      B           Em
has been utterly changed into fire."

            C                    Em
Why not be utterly changed into fire?

Why not be utterly changed into fire?

Why not be utterly changed into fire?

The King Beetle On A Coconut Estate

E                      E
On a cold December, just before dawn
       E                               E   A#  (repeat)
As the sun said Hello! to the sky
The Mantis prayed while the Lamellicorn
Tunneled and rolled in a threadbare tie
While the Holland Lops in the Karakung Glades
Indignantly thump their feet and hop away
When they cut their noses on the sharp-tipped blades
(Which the grass doesn't mind in the least)
And there's a heat-pat waiting in the chicken-wire hutch
Where the does from the Netherlands stay
But that dry alfalfa don't taste like much
And we're tired of the timothy hay

E E E E A# E (x2)
E E E E A#

  E                             E

       E                                  E     A#        E
As the dew turned to frost around her eyes,
              E               E
Me and Sister Margaret on the Pentagon lawn
     E                           E         A#    E (repeat)
Arrested, our wrists in a plastic tie
While the rats by the tracks on these winter days
Seeking shelter from the cold make a nest
From the tracts of our various ways
They can save their immortal
 C#m
souls

C#m                 C#m                           
A#                  E                           
C#m                 A#
Oh no timothy hay, no more timothy hay, etc.

(repeat progression from the second stanza)
On a cold December, just after dusk
As the sun bids its cordial goodbyes,
We'll be split to pieces like an apple seed husk
To reveal the tree that's been hidden inside
Which sapling called in a tattered sarong
As the seeds from the Shepherd's Purse fell,
Broke the news to Mom,
We found a better Mom we call 'God,'
Which she took quite well
Singing, what a beautiful God there must be!

(End on E chord)

at a distance stood a mangy goat

weary eyes and worn

chipped and twisted horns

there's a sign on the barn in the cabbage town

"when the rain picks up and the sun goes down

sinners, come inside

no clever talk, nor a gift to bring

with the sneaking snake in the garden grass

deep cried out to deep

the disciples fast asleep

"if you're willing that this cup might pass

we could find our way back home

maybe start a family all our own"

not my will, but yours be done.

what else here to do?

what else for me, but You?"

a stick, a carrot and a string

Introduction.

B, B, B, B, B, B, B, B, D, A.

First Verse.

B
Not one motion of her gesture could I forget
                                 D
The prettiest bag lady I ever met
A           B
Pushing her cart in the rain

Then gathering plastic and glass

She watched the day pass
               D
Not hour by hour
A               B
But pain by pain

If I was a basket filled with holes

Then she was the sand I tried to hold
                    D
And ran out behind me
          A                        
As I swung with some invisible hands

D                                    A
I stopped believing, you start to move
D                                           A
I stopped my leaving and the better man bloomed

First Chorus.
B, E, A (D if you want)  x4

Second Verse.
B
If you're still looking for a blanket

Sweetie, I'm sorry, I'm no sort of fabric
                       D
But if you need a tailor
A              B
Then take your torn shirt, and stumble up my stairs

And mumble your pitiful prayers
                                  D         A                     B    
And in your tangled, knotted sleep, our midnight needles go to work

Until all comfort and fear flows in one river
                                                           D
Down on the shelf by the mirror where you see yourself whole
A                    
And it makes you shiver

D                                    A
I stopped believing, you start to move
D                                           A
I stopped my leaving and the better man bloomed

Second Chorus.

Como intro:
Desnudar el sin razón
que modelo nuestras vidas
Parece ser causa perdida.

Nadie apuesta detener
el motor que contamina
el aire que a diario respiras

Am
Y que respiraste ayer,
Como intro
y que mañana tal vez, no lo sé.
Por eso hoy

Am
Reflexionando en esto,
C5
la madrugada pasó,
B5 / Am / G5 / F5# / Em
y dejó otro día para ser.

Ser guardianes o vigías de toda la miel
que guarda en toda colmena el sucio poder.
Predador, ecologista, pobre o gran señor.
Drogadependiente, doctor o paciente,
entreverado en el montón.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser

Culpable o inocente, malviviente o juez.
O quien con sólo su firma decreta la ley.
Pronucleares informistas modelan la situación.
Más tecnología, por más energía.
Fuga radiactiva de progreso.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser.

Derrame de combustible, exterminio forestal.
El motor contaminante no se detendrá.
Para ser hay otro día en el planeta inferior.
Como cualquier día, como todo día
Con o sin mi reflexión.

A)
Bm            D
Anoche la vi pasar
A              E
su cara me hizo tiritar
Bm        D
jamas olvidare 
             E       F#    
lo que me hizo ayer

A)
Bm            D
Su cara se transformo
A        E
que diabolica actitud
Bm             D
su puño cerrado
       E                             F#
avanzo y me reventó la nariz

B)
          G
*Nac, nac 
                    D     Em          
quien toca la puerta
                 B9-Bm
es combo final
      D           E
no abra la puerta*

A)
No se si andar
escondiendome de ti
si se que mañana 
andaras por ahí

A)
Yo se lo que quieres tu
quieres mi beso final
amiga lo siento
pero a mi 
me gusta tu mamá

B)
          G
*Nac, nac 
                    D     Em          
quien toca la puerta
                 B9-Bm
es combo final
      D           E
no abra la puerta*

B)
...matar
si yo no sabia
fue casualidad
no abra la puerta*

C)
F#                   G
Si tengo que dejar 
                          D
si tengo que olvidar
                            C#m
las cosas que me gustan mas 
                       Bm
lo voy hacer igual
                           G
Si tengo que arrancar 
                         D
si tengo que patearte a ti
                          E
que no te quepa duda
              F#
lo haré igual

B)
          G
*Nac, nac 
                    D     Em          
quien toca la puerta
                 B9-Bm
es combo final
      D           E
no abra la puerta*

B)
... matar
si yo no sabia
fue casualidad
a mi me gustaba
pero apareció su...

B)
... mamá
no tengo la culpa
combo final
      D           E         -  D   -  E
lo siento... final.*
