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.
They call me a creeping oozing son of a bitch
Because the smell of infection gets me stiff
I pound down on visions of perfection
Using my fists just to get my erection
They think it's gonna stop but its only getting worse
As she starts to choke upon her bile
Just a few more times my darling, your throat's about to split
From all the built-up bile that is now filling it
That's right, just let it out
The bile burns your mouth
The stomach acid corrodes your teeth, there is no doubt
Jeez, I love that smell, so I rejoice in it
Watching the blood drip from her ass is a sight not to be missed
I fist them til they're sick
Because the smell of infection gets me stiff
I pound down on visions of perfection
Using my fists just to get my erection
They think it's gonna stop but its only getting worse
As she starts to choke upon her bile
Just a few more times my darling, your throat's about to split
From all the built-up bile that is now filling it
That's right, just let it out
The bile burns your mouth
The stomach acid corrodes your teeth, there is no doubt
Jeez, I love that smell, so I rejoice in it
Watching the blood drip from her ass is a sight not to be missed
I fist them til they're sick
