The Blood Brothers – Nausea Shreds Yr Head Lyrics 18 years ago
Maybe I'm crazy, and I do sometimes think too deeply into a simpler message, but I thought this was about more than just material possessions.

We live in a glamorous mansion
with naplam in the walls.
Waterfalls fall like intestines from
flying gutted gulls.
We live in a glamorous mansion
with fast ghosts in the walls.

I thought this was representing things that seem perfect, but in the back of your mind, you know they're really hurting you.



My bedroom window looks out on
crucified orange groves.
Frail fingers in our five-course food.
Biblical rains when the midnight
maids strip nude.

I thought these two verses were representing things that seem perfect, but in the back of your mind, you know they're really hurting you. I mean, do frail fingers and intestines really sound good?



When the fire's chewing up your
walls where you gonna go?
Nooses hung from the stars tell me
yes or no.

The meaning I got from this verse was "When these short-time pleasures are destroying your life, are you gonna stay with them for the temporary comfort?"

Nausea shreds your head.

I'm not really sure what this lines supposed to mean, all the fake happiness is making you go insane maybe? I don't know.

Would you rather be homeless or
dead?
When your floor's foaming at the
mouth where you gonna run?
French windows passing out
drinking all night long?

Pretty much the same meaning as the last verse, except one part. "Would you rather be homeless or dead?" Meaning would you rather stick with your shitty habits and be "dead" never able to fix your problems OR would you rather do something about it even if it means you have to rebuild your life.

Nausea shreds your head.

Would you rather be homeless or
dead?
Will you look back?
Will you hesitate to leave all your
posessions behind?
Will you look back?

Will you hesitate to leave your formal life? Because if you do you're gonna end up falling back into it.



Or are you going to sink with the
ship and say everything's alright?
Are you gonna jump, jump, jump
out the window or burn, burn, burn
with the furniture?

Are you gonna take the risk? Leave everything behind for a better life? Even if it means temporary discomfort?

I could be way off, but that's my interpreation of it.
