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.
Forever in my mind, only you
The pieces in my life go away with you
Forever in my mind, only you
The pieces in my life run away with you
[Verse 1: Sik Kid]
You're forever on my mind, I can't let you go
I'm never on your mind, I already know
Still alive, inside I feel like I am dying slow
Tryna find the strength to fight while I can cope
Anxiety's so bad that I pop a Zoloft
So tired from touring that I went and I dosed off
Woke up to a night where you took the keys and you rode off
Sent a text "Where you going?", you replied "Tryna go off."
I'm acting like I don't care about you
When deep down I don't even know how to live without you
I wasn't looking for love, I partied up till I found you
And I let my emotions overflow and it drowned you
I tried to stalk your Instagram, but it's on private
There must be a new guy that you are hiding
I've done everything that I can and you're not trying
How do you continue to live knowing that I'm dying?
I wonder if it could've been different
Cause it eats me alive knowing that I can't fix it
And I'm all alone, but our memories pay a visit
Recording on the same mic you bought me last year for Christmas
And I got so lost in this rap shit, didn't see that you lost interest
And it hurts cause you were the reason that I got in it
If I knew I would've lost you, I would’ve never did it...
[Hook: Luna]
Forever in my mind, only you
The pieces in my life go away with you
Forever in my mind, only you
The pieces in my life run away with you
[Verse 2: Sik Kid]
I wanted to be famous, you wanted me normal
A dream that I was chasing, you stood as it hurt you
There's nothing I could do to ever say to assure you
That you were my only family that I ever turned to
Girls just see that I rap, they get overwhelmed
And then they don't know how to act, they can't control they self
And then it becomes hard to adapt
They take a pic, I get tagged
And all of a sudden you thinking I smashed
Now I'm stuck between hopeful and hopeless
And you're happy with him and I'm jealous and you know it
And you're taking advantage of my weak moment
Cause you're leading me on, but it's his hand that you're holding
And girl, let me warn you this one time
You better look both ways before you cross my mind
The road's a slippery slope and I wouldn't just walk by
Cause it'll be a hit and run, I'm feeling like Suge Knight
I drove by your house and I saw the lights off
I wish I could walk in and tell you what I lost, It’s my fault
And right now you're thinking I'm partying and fucking some chick
That I brought home from tonight on performance on tour
You're thinking I'm out fucking all of these groupie whores
Cause right now I'm drinking the pain away and I'm on the floor
Cause you never knew you're...
[Hook: Luna]
Forever in my mind, only you
The pieces in my life go away with you
Forever in my mind, only you
The pieces in my life run away with you
The pieces in my life go away with you
Forever in my mind, only you
The pieces in my life run away with you

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
