This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
She had some extra money
She wanted to buy time
Her friends said it was dangerous
But they couldn't change her mind
She did if for her mirror
And for the ocean's summer sand
She just laid down to that scalpel
That was in the surgeon's hand
She got a boob job
She got a what?
A boob job, no, yeah?
Put a pad of silicone up against the breastbone
Treat her like a man made thing
Well, the surgeons try to tell you
That the world will love you better
If you let 'em cut your body
And make those mounds inside your sweater
Just think of the investment
Now how long those things will last?
You know like, silicone is permanent
Even after you have passed
When the rest of you has faded
In some box under some stone
Yeah, you'll still have your silicone
Balanced on your bones
She got a boob job
She got a what?
A boob job, no, yeah?
Put a pad of silicone up against the breastbone
Boob job, huh, well get down
Boob job, I pick 'em up again
Boob job, ah good God
Treat her like a man made thing, no
She wanted to buy time
Her friends said it was dangerous
But they couldn't change her mind
She did if for her mirror
And for the ocean's summer sand
She just laid down to that scalpel
That was in the surgeon's hand
She got a boob job
She got a what?
A boob job, no, yeah?
Put a pad of silicone up against the breastbone
Treat her like a man made thing
Well, the surgeons try to tell you
That the world will love you better
If you let 'em cut your body
And make those mounds inside your sweater
Just think of the investment
Now how long those things will last?
You know like, silicone is permanent
Even after you have passed
When the rest of you has faded
In some box under some stone
Yeah, you'll still have your silicone
Balanced on your bones
She got a boob job
She got a what?
A boob job, no, yeah?
Put a pad of silicone up against the breastbone
Boob job, huh, well get down
Boob job, I pick 'em up again
Boob job, ah good God
Treat her like a man made thing, no

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.
