A Perfect Circle – The Noose Lyrics 21 years ago
I think the reformed alcoholic explanation makes the most sense.
While the pretentious Christian explanation was articulated pretty well, it didn't account for the lines:

"But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about
Making your amends to the dead"

I know APC is deep and cryptic, but I don't know how those
lines are relevant if the song is about a pretentious Christian.

Demon Hunter – I Play Dead Lyrics 21 years ago
"I've got to find a way to stop before it starts.
Finding its way through my veins right to my heart.
I never thought it something everyone could see.
And it kills within me."
I see this song as being mostly about regret. It's like when you keep doing the same sin over and over and you feel worse every time.

"I won't leave without a trace. I won't be erased."
I also get the feeling like the singer is afraid to die without making a name for himself. He doesn't want to be forgotten.

A Perfect Circle – Pet Lyrics 21 years ago
I don't see this song as being specifically about Bush or the Iraqi war. This song is about a false sense of reassurance, most likely from a drug. Propaganda, sex, or alcohol are not huge leaps in logic though
