| Jerry Cantrell – Hellbound Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
"Going down the last act scene" to me is about comming to the end. Self destruction and a sence of doom because you can't stop it "Self appointed abuse king" is about doing all of this to yourself and getting to the point where you're going to hit the bottom. "Black eat white" to me means letting evil overtake what is good. Cassette thrill could be the thrill of hearing, or seeing your songs being on the radio or in the record store. Maybe? "Whatever come, eat your fill, choke on bones" is about over indulging and doing whatever you want until it kills you. "Flowing stream long stilled" is seeing what was good being gone. The truth is to some degree we all steal" is how nobody is immune to these things. Hellbound is just that. On your way to hell and there's no stopping it. "Justified a self made man. All I do is do what I can" is trying to justify the behavior and saying that that is who you are and you can't change it. "Edges sharpend, blasted sand" is when your difficult past has made you stronger. Sort of a trial by fire kind of thing. "Bizzare, devoted fan" is being surprised that some people get what your singing about and you find them strange. Perhaps? "Flowing theme, blown will" is having a plan and your willpower isn't strong enough to make it happen. "Washington, a fish belly rust" is beyond me. No idea. "Sad chapter, read last page first" is seeing the end coming and everything until that point is unknown but whatever it is, it will end in destruction or death. And there is nothing to be done about it. "Flowing dream now killed" is knowing there is no way to make your dreams or goal happen. It's over and that's that. This is what I get out of it anyway. I could be wrong. |

| Alice in Chains – Hate To Feel Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I always thought this song was about Layne trying to detox. "Gotta change. Set a date." "So climb walls. Thin my blood now. And I crawl back to bed now" refers to locking yourself in the house and drinking until you pass out so you won't be tempted to go score. Also the "eat my cake. Lick my plate" refers to the chocolate that recovering adicts often eat b/c it "triggers dopamine release in the brain..... similar to that of opium" Thanks Wikipedia | |
