Remedy Lyrics
Something I can taste with a fix I can trust.
Another high, more potent than lust.
Eating and repeating
like the workings of rust and time.
dancing down on the window pane.
Comatose. Eyes half closed.
Arms wrapped up with the wounds all sewn.
I froze from head to toe.
Clenched the jaw,
then felt my body roll over slow.
I'll strip the gauze for rational self-analysis.
"I'm down. Cut and bound.
Counting scars, and counting blessings loud."
So loud.
healing as long as there's bleeding.
No regrets, or fallings fits.
I'll strip the gauze and bleed it.
It's only simply therapy.
I need a remedy - sounded like he needs to heal, heal from what? don't really know, but the song is great, nonetheless
Just a lyrical note, "Diesel and Dust" is the name of 1987 album by Midnight Oil. Most people know this as the album that spawned the hit single "Beds Are Burning".
this song is so great, I don't really have an interpretation of it...
I'm not into their new stuff much. The songs from No division are definitely their best.
At the beginning where it rocks out "I need a remedy" that was my first attraction to this song. It's just basically a metaphor for healing from the scars of love and lust. Taking himself and avoiding all else, and in this quarantine of self-reflection he finds once more his desires and ambitions, and can heal.
I'm not sure what this song means, but I think it might be about cutting in a way. "...time alone is always healing as long as there's bleeding."
i think xdressthepartx was right for the most part. It's still up for debate whether this is as good as their old stuff, I say it's just as good. This song is one of HWM's best in my opinion. It's overall feel is amazing.
this song is about CRYSTAL METH ADDICTION...a unique experience that only a few individuals including me and that entire band have been through in our lives...anyways...
these guys make evil people seem nice, I mean come on guys lighten up, they are always downtrodden and nostalgiac, def had some drug past, i mean do they even laugh?
