Crystal Baller Lyrics
I think it's me and I'm afraid to speak
I keep on going from week to week
This way out in a lie
the heaters broke down, open doorways
Friends of yours tell me more
What happens in your mind?
Though we don't know where it ends
I wanna be your Crystal Baller
I wanna show you how it ends
And I've been tuned a little speak too soon
Words jumped out of somebody's throat
What happened to the time?
In my mind the record still plays
Still wonder what the fuck it says
I'm hoping there is time
Though we don't know where it ends
I wanna be your Crystal Baller
I can show you how it ends
And the promise that it brings? (some day you must awhile some days)
I wanna be your Crystal Baller (some day you must awhile some days)
I will show you everything (some day you must awhile some days)
Oh!
I wonder what the whole thing's for?
There must've been somebody else
And the pictures of the pub keep singing
And I've been tuned a little speak too soon
Words jumped out of somebody's throat
What happened to the time?
Heat is broke down, open doorways
Waiting for the trick to score
It seems that way sometimes
Homesick for your problem or
Wonder why the wind keeps blowing
You through my mind?
Remember we were friends (some day you must awhile some days)
I wanna be your Crystal Baller (some day you must awhile some days)
I wanna be your diamond ring (some day you must awhile some days)
And the promise that it brings (some day you must awhile some days)
Let me be your Crystal Baller (some day you must awhile some days)
I will show you everything (some day you must awhile some days)
Be your Crystal Baller (some day you must awhile some days)
Crystal Baller
Be your Crystal Baller
Crystal Baller
first off, there are a lot of mistakes on these lyrics...no offense to rjbucs I close my eyes and I see a freak, I think it's me and I'm afraid to speak I keep on going from week to weakness way out in a line. I dream of lives we could have had before, but the heat is broke down open doorways. Friends of yours will tell me more what happens in your mind
Can we try and take the high road though we don't know where it ends I want to be your Crystal Baller I want to show you how it ends
Macrame queens in the afternoon and I'm in tune or did I speak too soon Punch drunk on somebody's joke, what happened to the time A footnote in your dance of days, In my mind that record still plays Still wonder what the fuck it says, and hoping there is time
Can we try and take the high road though we don't know where it ends I want to be your Crystal Baller I can show you how it ends
Can we talk about tomorrow and the promise that it brings I want to be your Crystal Baller, I want to show everything
I wonder what the whole things for, I wonder what the whole things for In the moment you were screaming at me I would have been somebody else And the patrons of the pub keep singing Macrame queens in the afternoon and I'm in tune or did I speak too soon Punch drunk on somebody's joke what happened to the time I dream of lives we could have had before where the heat is broke down open doorways Like waiting for a trick to score, It seems that way some times I wonder where were all going, I'm homesick for your primal knowing I wonder why the wind keeps blowing you through my mind
Try and take the high road remember we were friends I want to be your Crystal Baller I want to be your diamond ring
The one I never gave you and the promise that it brings Let me be your Crystal Baller I will show you everything. I'll be your Crystal Baller
second off, i think this song is amazing...steven jenkins is a lyrical mastermind
agreed. mistakes and amazing song.
agreed. mistakes and amazing song.
I agree as well, Jenkins writes amazing lyrics.

Heh way to post 3x. Anyway I wanted to add that I think the lyrics in the background of "Can we talk about tomorrow" etc are "some get it, some have to wait a while".
I think Crystal Baller has to do with the future...he wants to be her fortune teller...not her drug dealer. I particularly like this part:
Wanna be your diamond ring (some day you must awhile some days) The one I never gave you (some day you must awhile some days) And the promise that it brings (some day you must awhile some days) Let me be your Crystal Baller (some day you must awhile some days) I will show you everything (some day you must awhile some days)
It seems like he's talking about relationship mistakes he has made in the past that he wishes he could take back. That's what I got out of it...but I think that 3eb's songs are great for that reason, they mean something different to everyone.
this song gives me hope to move past old relationships and toward new ones with an open mind and an open heart.
as cliche as that may sound.
my favorite 3eb song hands down.
ilrlr.
xo.
This is strange, and almost difficult to read over four years later...

This song is about a guy who really wants to stay with his girlfriend but she is thinking of breaking up with him or already has. "I dream of lives we could have had before, but the heat has broke down open doorways, friends of yours will tell me more what happens in your mind" He talks to her friends and finds out she has doubts about their relationship. They have drifted so far apart that he has to talk to them to know what's going on with her. "A footnote in your dance of days, in my mind that record still plays, still wonder what fuck it says, hoping there is time" He thinks back to all the hints she has dropped him over the years about the things he needs to change. He's still not sure what he needs to fix, but he hopes she will stay long enough for him to figure that out. "Can we try and take the high road though we don't know where it ends" He wants to take the high road in their relationship and stay together though they aren't sure how their lives will end up. He wants her to take a chance with him. "I want to be your crystal baller, I want to show you how it ends" A crystal baller is a fortune teller. He wants to show her that the future will be good if they stay together. "Can we talk about tomorrow and the promise that it brings, I want to be your crystal baller, I want to show you everything" He keeps telling her things will get better someday and puts everything off until tomorrow. But now he sees that she is getting sick of waiting for him to change and realizes he needs to take action now before she is gone. "I wonder where we're all going, I'm homesick for your primal knowing, I wonder why the wind keeps blowing you through my mind" He doesn't know what is going to happen to them and is longing for reassurance. He can't stop thinking about her. "I want to be your crystal baller, I want to be your diamond ring... the one I never gave you, and the promise that it brings, let me be your crystal baller, I will show you everything" He knows he didn't do enough to make her want to stay with him. He regrets not making her more of a priority and wants to show her that things will be different this time around.
I fell in love with the most beautiful woman I've ever met. She's my soul mate for life. This song helped us stay together through rough times. The part "some get it, some must wait a while" really sticks out to me.

I love you Dawna. I'll always be there for you.

Virtually all third eye blind songs are personal, and are thus uninterpretable except by sheer fantasy.
this song is amazing. i just saw them live last week and they are so good live. steven is an amazing singer/songwriter
a lot of 3eb's songs are about crystal meth...i think this might have somethign to do with it. (CRYSTAL baller)
@dank22 you are correct, sir. The imagery interwoven under the cover of a relationship with another person, but it's about the draw, the attraction of crystal meth. Poetic as all get out, too. Weeks fly by at a time and thoughts seem huge as they happen while on that drug, but are seldom memorable. You catch glimpses of another realm, dimension, thought processes and they entice you to keep chasing, to keep using. Don't run out and it's a fairly intriguing and beautiful place to be . Time, however will fly by and primal urges will come to the...

Weeks fly by at a time and thoughts seem huge as they happen while on that drug, but are seldom memorable. You catch glimpses of another realm, dimension, thought processes and they entice you to keep chasing, to keep using. Don't run out and it's a fairly intriguing and beautiful place to be . Time, however will fly by and primal urges will come to the forefront. How does it end if you stay in the relationship with it: jail, rehab, or death...and when on it you believe it's worth the risk . Big head ballin'. It's about meth.
