O I noticed that someone mentioned that they thought that wealth/obsession with money be the symbolism in the phrase "search for pleasures overrated" but i really see it meaning how we tend to seek out vices as a coping skills-drugs, alcohol, gambling, sex, etc are the pleasures we search out when really the pleasure we get from said vices is really overrated. then the world gets bleek and depression settles in with the pain, desperation, shame etc ALL TOGETHER FOR SO LONG its wearisome and breaking and when we think about it we just get disgusted cuz we r we r instead of being where we thought we would be at this point in our lives. With all this torment comes a cycle of negativity-leading to more bullshit but alot of people will become cold and angry when they just were tryin to be strong. and in the midst of this devastating epiphany, we realize we let ourselves down but before we can admit that aloud we r already doing the next thing we arent proud of.....man this song is awesome

I agree. the meaning of the song seems really obvious to me, I love how in the first line he manages to taunt/call out satan so u know right away he is angry and fed up with shit to be so bold and only emotional pain for periods at a time can do that to you!!! and like ultraviolet said the song definitely portrays shame, pain, and desperation- seen in the next verse when he yells out to the Angels t lend them their might, he needs it to get thru. and this isnt just some ive been thru something bad song, its tragic cuz we never had a chance to defend ourselves or anyone else bcuz we didnt just get fucked over, we were fucked over and robbed of the innocence and happiness that came with being naive.... its very complex in meaning ....awesome song, RIP JAYAR! |
