Stone Temple Pilots – Wet My Eyes

Hey everybody, where did Mary go?
Where did Mary go?
And where's my only cigarette?
Please think for me, I can't bear to
I'll just lie here for a while

Wet myself, wet my bed
I've readied it all for her, you know
Clean sheets, incense and lots of fluffy pillows
now soiled
Hey, where's my cigarette?

Did you check the bathroom, the bathtub?
She sleeps there sometimes
Water cleanses you know,
Washes dirt away, makes new

Maybe she, maybe she, maybe she, maybe, maybe she swam away
Alright, now what?

    General CommentI don't think the meaning of this song is overly deep...

    The music is trippy, and it sounds like he's pretty stoned. He got ready for Mary to come over and spend the night and she's missing. She's probably off somewhere too messed up on drugs to move--->"check the bathroom"

    At the end he's just too messed up to comprehend what's going on.

    Obvious reference here---> "water cleanses" talking about baptism.

    General CommentI think he was high when he wrote/recorded this song. It's pretty obvious when you hear it and read the lyrics.

    General CommentI think he's imitating someone who's high, but he didn't do drugs until after this CD. And I think Mary is his future wife's name, which is weird.

    Why do I know these things?
