| i'm pretty sure the lyrics have a deeper meaning than that man, yea he comes out and says he killed her favorite son, shot in the temple, etc. etc, but I'm pretty sure this is just an analogy to destroying something else, a relationship of some sort maybe? the last verse kinda hints at this possibly? i dont know i came here hoping to get an in depth look from someone else | |

I came here to see what others thought about this song but there aren't any real interpretations yet so I'll throw mine out there. As with many MTB songs I'm pretty sure this one has a relationship type theme. To me it seems like there are two distinct sounds/moods to this song. The slower part at the beginning and the end, and the more up tempo chunk of the song in the middle, which starts with the line, "her heels click on the side walk". The first part seems like he (or some guy) is away in the country for whatever reason, kind of isolated from society and his life back home. He seems to pass the time by getting drunk (drinking the poison) and maybe just hanging with a dog or something, all while thinking about a girl he has left behind. It almost seems like he is stuck up in some lonely log cabin in the woods or something, but the reason he is there is never really revealed. The up tempo part starts and brings in to picture the girl's life which I think is pretty obvious. She has been left alone back in the city and eventually gets lonely and can't help but start spending time with other men. The "holding a new hand, she doesn't know his last name, she doesn't need the anguish or the guilt" line suggests she is ashamed of possibly cheating on the guy who has gone away to the country for whatever reason. The the next chunk of the song is pretty easy to understand, but I really like the presentation of how this new guy seduces her by putting the right music on, having a bad ass view, the looks and the talk, etc. etc. She can't resist his charm. I also really like the line, "he had a place that was just up the street, she was down for the walk" Eventually the song slows back down and returns to the guy stuck out in the woods drinking his poison. Though this time around it is the morning and he is waking up with a hangover, as evidenced by the line, "I need something to kill this dull ache". I'm pretty sure some of the lyrics are just a bit off here btw, but anyway, it almost seems like he can sense that his girlfriend has been out the night before with another guy; "have you been sleeping, or is it still your town....are you drinking the poison and phasing me out". He is wondering if she is out drinking and hooking up with other guys and phasing him out of her life because he is not around. The whole freeze frame vision line confuses me but it sounds good. Anyway, I could be totally wrong, but that's the story that plays out in my head when I listen to this song. At first when I bought OMNI this was my least favorite song, probably because of how long it takes to get into the up beat part, but now I really like it. I'm not checking my spelling so please excuse any typos. |
