Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
When all is said and done
Will we still feel pain inside?
Will the scars go away with night?
Try to smile for the morning light
It's like the best dream to have
Where everything is not so bad
Every tear is so alone
Like God himself is coming home to say
I, I can do anything
If you want me here
Yeah, I can fix anything
If you let me near
Where are those secrets now
That you're too scared to tell?
I'd whisper them all aloud
So you can hear yourself
Green trees were the first sign
The deepest blue, the clearest sky
The silence came with the brightest eyes
And turned water into wine
The children ran to see
The parents stood in disbelief
And those who knew braced for the ride
The Earth itself then came alive to say
I, I can do anything
If you want me here
And I can fix anything
If you let me near
Where are those secrets now
That you're too scared to tell?
I'd whisper them all aloud
So you can hear yourself
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad
Your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad
The cure is if you let in just a little more love
I promise you this, a little's enough
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad
Your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad
The cure is if you let in just a little more love
I promise you this, a little's enough
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad
Your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad
The cure is if you let in just a little more love
I promise you this, a little's enough
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad
Your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad
The cure is if you let in just a little more love
I promise you this, a little's enough
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad (just a little)
Your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad (just a little)
The cure is if you let in just a little more love (just a little love)
I promise you this, a little's enough
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad (just a little)
Your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad (just a little)
The cure is if you let in just a little more love (just a little love)
I promise you this, a little's enough
Will we still feel pain inside?
Will the scars go away with night?
Try to smile for the morning light
It's like the best dream to have
Where everything is not so bad
Every tear is so alone

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
