Thrice - 'Black Honey' (Acoustic) | No Future

We met up with Thrice members Dustin Kensrue and Teppei Teranishi in their green room at Toronto's Budweiser Stage, where they were set to play with Rise Against and Deftones. They performed an acoustic version of the first single from 'To Be Everywhere Is to Be Nowhere,' "Black Honey." June 11, 2017.

[NoFutureExclaim]

I keep swinging my hand through a swarm of bees cause I
I want honey on my table
I keep swinging my hand through a swarm of bees cause I
I want honey on my table

But I never get it right
No, I never get it right

I keep swinging my hand through a swarm of bees
I can't understand why they're stinging me
But I'll do what I want
I'll do what I please
I'll do it again till I've got what I need

I'll rip and smash through the hornet's nest
Do you understand I deserve the best?
And I'll do what I want
I'll do what I please
I'll do it again till I've got what I need

I try to stick this pin through a butterfly cause I
I like all the pretty colors
It just fell apart, so I flung it in the fire
To burn with all the others

Cause I never get it right
No, I never get it right

I keep swinging my hand through a swarm of bees
I can't understand why they're stinging me
But I'll do what I want
I'll do what I please
I'll do it again till I've got what I need

I'll rip and smash through the hornet's nest
Do you understand I deserve the best?
Till you do what I want
I'll do what I please
I'll do it again till I've got what I need

This time, I'll get it right
This time, I'll get it right
It's gonna be this time, I'll get it right
God, let it be this time I get it right

So I'm cutting that branch off the cherry tree
Singing, "This will be my victory, "
Then I
See them coming after me
And they're following me across the sea
And now they're stinging my friends and my family
And I
Don't know why this is happening
But I'll do what I want
I'll do what I please
I'll do it again till I've got what I need

I keep swinging my hand through a swarm of bees cause I
I want honey on my table

This is the first time I properly heard "swinging my hand". I had to look up the lyrics to double check. I have been singing "swinging my head" this whole time, picturing some dude who is metal af headbanging in a bee swarm!!

[mengkhang]

Always been one of my favorite bands growing up. I still listen to artist in the ambulance.

[theoneeyeddragon]

Dustin has the most heart wrenching but yet sexy voice I have ever heard.

[elcookiemonsteru]

I love this song...Heard the first time with Seether.... But became a big fan of Thrice and really identify myself with this song....

[sdth]

I'm f**cking loved this song before, but this acoustic version. God, thank you for this man and his voice. I hear your speech with voice of him.

[jwchew]

this is so good, I love how gravelly Dustin's voice has gotten and it's absolutely perfect for this song.

[HH-ezqc]

One of the best voices I have heard. Amazing tone!

[Whosthatgirl]

This dude is all around talented! Badass Voice! Badass song! Badass band!

[GobRogan]

I always keep coming back to this and watching it start to finish. One of the best performances ever.

[ShaunDinan-fzbq]

As a busker on Acoustic, this song makes me realize that I don’t play enough two chord parts and it slaps.

[joshuajohnson]

This is how I feel about my sobriety this song

[slybenal]

Living Legends?? Yuuup! 💯✔🇺🇸🔥🌶🍸 Thrice is my favorite band n always will be! Been with them since 2001

[.Tapestry]

goddamn! the duo guitar interplay is fa-bu-fucking-luss

[Jonny-uuwf]

The ending of this song is so damn beautiful

[casiel]

I died and went to heaven @ 2:52 and again @ 2:59 and once more @ 3:11

[Cletus-cd]

For some reason, I've never listened to the other songs by the band. I'm afraid to. This one hurts enough

[jaelsonnen]

Their song "whistleblower" is more relevant today than ever.

[AlphaBravoDingo]

Some of the most profound lyrics in our generation. They say a lot.

[schattmultz]

I’m glad Keanu Reeves is still playing acoustic
