| Slayer – Addict Lyrics | 15 years ago |

Funny how people project meanings onto things lol... sometimes it's a real stretch. To me personally the song is very literal. It's that darkness within each of us, that cold empty core which wants to destroy, to consume life, to suck the marrow from the bone of existence. That darkness isn't all that's within us, there's the opposite side of the 'coin' too. I know this feeling, because often when I've seen the fakeness of much of the world, of so many people, part of me desires to break them, to tear down their walls and reign with absolute power over them and their pathetic state. It's almost like a wild dog... if such an animal respects you, it won't attack you. But if it sees your insanity, your fear and weakness, it may well do so. The natural urge to destroy and challenge that which is pathetic and weak - spiritually pathetic and weak that is, rather than what some group subjectively opinions as 'weak'. Disgust is perhaps the appropriate word. |

| Saliva – Weight Of The World Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I think it might be about him going to see a prostitute, especially the reference to being made last in line (as if she reserves a spot for him as a 'special customer'), and he's dealing with being addicted to this and to her, and probably also being in love with her or at least having feelings with her, but also hating their interaction and what it's doing to him, and how alone he feels given that this is the only way he can find 'intimacy'. | |

To me this song is about Satan as the consciousness cut off from the Creator and from love. With the title of the song, for me light metaphorically represents love, the Sun represents the Creator (the source of love), the shadow represents hiding from love and being cut off from it, and the fact the shadow is *on* the sun represents that Satan is a part of the Creator in the same way that all beings and existence are. The rest of the song from this standpoint could be interpreted as from the point of view as Satan speaking in retrospect of what has been lost in the 'fall', and what it is to be as it is now. |

Well, here's one possible interpretation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEkANn1IBaQ Not saying it's necessarily true, but based on what I've come across in my own life... it wouldn't surprise me. |
