This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Searching for blood in the salty sea
The sun beating down
On the chest in back of me
Looking for drugs in a southern town
I've got this red right hand
That points me south
The puke green clouds
Just spat me out
Into the hot, hot lands
I landed with no shoes
I hear
"hey, come pollinate me"
across the room,
I hope to watch you
Writhe again soon
they've got the army of ears
They can't hear you now
I got the piss in my veins
And these furrowed brows
You've got this one last chance
To burn me, turn me down
If not, i've got these last 12 bucks
To spend on you
You can take me anywhere
Your sick mind wants to
Use yourself to fuel me using you
I hear
"hey, come pollinate me"
The sun beating down
On the chest in back of me
Looking for drugs in a southern town
I've got this red right hand
That points me south
The puke green clouds
Just spat me out
Into the hot, hot lands
I landed with no shoes
I hear
"hey, come pollinate me"
across the room,
I hope to watch you
Writhe again soon
they've got the army of ears
They can't hear you now
I got the piss in my veins
And these furrowed brows
You've got this one last chance
To burn me, turn me down
If not, i've got these last 12 bucks
To spend on you
You can take me anywhere
Your sick mind wants to
Use yourself to fuel me using you
I hear
"hey, come pollinate me"

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
I think this song is parrelleling sex to being in the music industry. Some of the lyrics some of you guys were talking about earlier. "Burn me, turn me down" and "last $12 to spend on you" sound like they're music industry refrences, however, I also think he's telling a story about as he moved into the city to become a musician he meets this girl who is basically the next 'girl who's pride makes her hard to forget' He's hitting on her at a bar and he's got $12 left to buy booze and spend on her to try to convince her to sleep with him. He wants to watch her 'writhe'. Max is basically telling a really standard one night stand story in the most insane way possible.
He's basically comparing us to him in this story. We puruse around CDs stores and websites looking for the next thing to entertain us. We don't care what or who it is, if they're not attractive to us we move on, sometimes we don't even pay for it.
Max Bemis is a genius
I think the song is about Max trying to get signed but because of the typical unoriginal bands that the rcord labels are happy to sign he isnt getting a foot in. He could, but as shown in belt, he will only do things the way he wants to do them and he won't change. First verse is about him looking to be signed, "for drugs", maybe to feed his habit of music. Then being rejected, "puke green cloud just spat me out". Pollinate me, sign me. Hopes to see the typical bands with their record companys "writhe again soon" or fail. "They've got the army of ears, they can't hear you now" is a clever line. The record companys are supposed to recognise talent "(army of ears)" but just ignore it when they hear it, just because it's different "furrowed brows". But he's still passionate "piss in my veins". I cant understand the last couple of lines tho, posssibly he's taking a stab at those who do just follow the trend of the same old music and actually pay to get there. Or his 12 bucks are his own original song style to give to them and they can do what they want to him as long as he's soing what he wants and getting his messages across to the people, that emos and all trends are a waste of time, stupid and pitiful. By doing this the record label would fuel him up, make him even more passionate but angry.
You're all wrong! NO ONE KNOWS! ok anyway, south is warmer. its cold in the winter he's going into the hot land with no shoes, its ironic bcuz its winter time here now and its hot so hes talking bout hot when its cold. Also he is talking about a salty sea and he's looking for drugs and he's bleeding. He's sweating and he's feverish., Its harsh its scary its insane. He's struggling.Across the room i hope to waatch you writhe. The girls he's with is so fucking hot omg and she's naked and he's like watchng her and she's on a couch naked looking really hot and writhing around in sexual pleasure. OH YES! last twelve bucks to spend on you. Clearly he's speaking of drugs, fuel me using you, yeah, smoking tht piff he is. Like a pipe or a naked woman its all the same ot him bcuz he jsut has these twelve dollars for drugs. nggrfggt is wht my friends nam is on WOW. His name i s ilya, but that is irrelevant to the song NVM. Hey hey come pollinate me across the room i hope to watch you writhe again soon omg its sos exual. its all like YES NAKED GIRL ON MY COUCH and drugs. In the heat. Lastly at the ednd he's having an orgasm listen to him BLEEPBABBOOOBOOBLAH! Yeah BABY! i hope to watch YOU writhe again soon, babe. WOoohOOOhahhhhwooooohjhaahhhhheeyyyooohhyeaaagagagagagddadadadadadadraaaaahhhhhhh le sex. I know.
DursoDarkoRawr....dude get laid please...for me.
he uses ugly imagery of sex and drugs to describe the greed of the music industry and the process of being signed and selling your music. music executives do not care how the music comes across, so long as it makes money. they are not soncerned about the content, only the profit.
I met max at a private show and asked him myself. he played this song and some oter ones for my girlfriends birthday. it was expensive thoughhh:)(and I saw the show after like a week of nonstop blazing so i was high as fuck1)
anyways he broke down the lyrics of a couple of songs, this being one of them:
searching for blood in the salty sea the sun beating down on the chest in back of me looking for drugs in a southern town i�ve got this red right hand that points me south the puke green clouds just spat me out into the hot, hot lands i landed with no shoes
that part is about him growing up in the south and hating it.he was looking for drugs because he hated his life when he was growing up in the south."puke green clouds just spat me out" this depicts him going to a shitty school and now hes in real life, and he has nothing. so he decides to move to the north.
i hear "hey, come pollinate me"
across the room, i hope to watch you writhe again soon
this depicts max meeting a girl up north. he hears the girl singing "hey, come pollinate me." across the room means across from the south. the south and north are like kindof in a war. I hope to hope you writhe again soon means he doesnt want to go back.
they've got the army of ears they can�t hear you now i got the piss in my veins and these furrowed brows you've got this one last chance to burn me, turn me down if not, i�ve got these last 12 bucks to spend on you you can take me anywhere your sick mind wants to use yourself to fuel me using you
he is doing alot of drugs and he thinks people are listening to him and his girlfriend. he continues to abuse drugs. his girlfriend gets mad at him and says he has to stop doing drugs now. he says she can save him, if she wants, from all the bad things he was doing. if not, he wants to go on one last date.
i hear "hey, come pollinate me"
she says again she wants him. he is now clean. and lives happily after.
CALEBTHEMAN SMOKE WEED EVER DAY
"They've got the army of ears, they can't hear you now" is a clever line.
I always thought it was about sex:
"Hey, come pollinate me" "Across the room, I hope to watch you WRITHE again soon."
Plus all the "yeah's" he tosses in.
it probably is, that is what i first thought, but then if u delve deeper, maybe theres a deeper meaning. this is rock opera after all. my thoughts anyway
I like mattz123 interpretation. Especially since at the end, he says, "I've got these last $12 to spend on you," CDs typically cost $12, and he's saying, whatever I've given in, I'll go buy your music.
Maybe?
"you've got this one last chance to burn me, turn me down"
I think it means..you can like his music or not and it doesnt matter
"if not, i’ve got these last 12 bucks to spend on you"
I think what blueofthesky is correct with the CD thing, i bought the CD for 12 bucks, lol.
"you can take me anywhere your sick mind wants to"
I think this means you can take the lyrics however you want good or bad.
