| The Mayan Factor – Hopi Elders Lyrics

To me this song is about depression and suicide. "Plastic bullets" are painkillers and sleeping pills in capsule-shape, which are shaped like bullets and also inflict harm like bullets. The narrator carried them with him in a ziploc bag for convenience. He is saying, when you find my body, please don't be angry what I've done. He is saying that he is sorry for dying and sorry for being a drug addict. Jumping off a bridge into a cold river is a way to commit suicide, but the analogy to being in a frozen river could also be metaphorical because the body gets cold after death. Devastating, sad song in light of the fact that The Mayan Factor's singer actually died due to an overdose on heroin. :( This is just my interpretation. I have no idea about the title, Hopi Elders, though. |

I enjoy reading these comments but really, some of you guys are kinda outlandish in your interpretations. The song is actually about the VitaminWater company back when it used to be called "MurderWater." The narrator of the song is thirsty, you know, he's on his way walking to school, he didn't get enough sleep, he even went through the trouble to light a fire. After all these troubles the man is tired and dehydrated. That's where MurderWater comes in -- it has hydration (i.e., water) and vitamins for focus, you see. "Murder Water is needed!" If the song came out nowadays the lyric would be changed to "VitaminWater is NEEDED!" Glad I could set the record straight with my accurate interpretation. Peace out. |

I think the drugs are a metaphor for religion generally, especially belief in the afterlife. Religion is the opiate (painkiller) of the masses. |
