This is definately my least favourite song off 13th Step. Its actualy a cover of a song by failure - a band Tool once toured with and once contained Troy Van Leeuwen (now in APC) - so i guess thats why. I think you guys pretty much got the meaning. continuing addiction theme, nurse = drug/supplier of drugs, refers to it as "nurse" as hes kidding himself to thinking that he needs the drugs or that theyre doing him good. i guess lost apples = lost innocence ("apple of my eye") or the temptation of anything else but the drugs (apple analogy from Genesis). "face down" on the rug, "shrinking in your head" = consequences of addiction? As its a cover, i think it was added just cos it fit with the albums concept, rather than having been written to further the albums meaning, if you see what i mean. what you guys reckon? |
