Thats my one gripe about the record, Chesters lyirics. His melodies and harmonies are good but im not impressed with the lyrics, even the title of the songs, thats one thing I liked about Weilands STP was the odd names songs had, nevermind his lyrics.
I blame the Deleo bros. for the lyrics.
Anyway, I'm a Linkin Park fan, and I think High Rise is generic crap.
I love Weiland, but he's never been the greatest lyricist. He might write something like this:
Butterflies, Purple Skies
The Bank checks out the frogs again
School's in session, my obsession
Today's cows ate the pie
Love the fish
Water to itch
Babe Ruth has his way again
The water's dry, drowning flies
