The Smashing Pumpkins

The Smashing Pumpkins (or Smashing Pumpkins) are an American alternative rock band from Chicago, Illinois. Formed in 1988 by frontman Billy Corgan (lead vocals, guitar), D'arcy Wretzky (bass), James Iha (guitar), and Jimmy Chamberlin (drums), the band has undergone many line-up changes. The current lineup features Corgan, Chamberlin, Iha and guitarist Jeff Schroeder. Disavowing the punk rock roots of many of their alt-rock contemporaries, they have a diverse, densely layered, and guitar-heavy sound, containing elements of gothic rock, heavy metal, dream pop, psychedelic rock, progressive rock, shoegazing, and electronica in later recordings.

With the noise that brought you
Paladin and dare
To gouge, bellwether
That which can't be shared
Crow by crow
And stone by stone, we flowed
From hidden spring to cold (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
There ain't but cold (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Unto which I've flown, sweet fold (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Longing just to belong

Cape the wind and cape your kind (ah, ah)
And cape the wynds that back (ah, ah)
How you've held to chance
Delivered as forgiven
Cape the wind and cape your kind (ah, ah)
And cape the wynds that back (ah, ah)
How you've held to chance
Delivered as forgiven

Crow by crow (by crow, by crow)
Stone by stone (by stone, by stone)
(by stone, by stone, by stone)
Wish me how I won't provide for you
Spell me how these tales ought to be

Side along, confound me
Side along, despair
The weight, precision
The odds by faith, unfair
Crow by crow
And stone by stone, we flowed
From hidden shoal to cold (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
And oh, that cold (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Tell me where I'm told, to know (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Darkness is forbidden
There ain't but cold (ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
Unto which I've flown, sweet fold (ah, ah, ah)
Longing just to belong

Cape the wind and cape your kind (ah, ah)
And cape the wynds that back (ah, ah)
How you've held to chance
Delivered as forgiven

Crow by crow (by crow, by crow)
Stone by stone (by stone, by stone)
(by stone, stone by stone, by stone)
Wish me how I won't provide for you
Spell me how these tales ought to be
