Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
Stay with me, so far away
The world is beyond our reach
Brighten me with a thousand suns
Love me when I am wrong
Stay with me
Love me like a mistress sun
And I won't let you down
Broken by the moment now
As I surrender the crown
Lay with me, so far away
The world is pure and in reach
Punish me a thousand times
I'm the end of your leash
Stay with me
Lead me like a mistress should
And I won't let you down
Broken by the beauty and the love
As I
Surrender
Give to the crown
Surrender
Let me kneel down
Surrender
Give to the crown
Surrender
Let me strip down
Down
Stripped down to the bone
Stay with me
Love me like a mistress sun
And I won't let you down
Taken by the moment now as I
As I
Surrender the crown
Give to the crown
Surrender the crown
The world is beyond our reach
Brighten me with a thousand suns
Love me when I am wrong
Stay with me
Love me like a mistress sun
And I won't let you down
Broken by the moment now
As I surrender the crown
Lay with me, so far away
The world is pure and in reach
Punish me a thousand times
I'm the end of your leash
Stay with me
Lead me like a mistress should
And I won't let you down
Broken by the beauty and the love
As I
Surrender
Give to the crown
Surrender
Let me kneel down
Surrender
Give to the crown
Surrender
Let me strip down
Down
Stripped down to the bone
Stay with me
Love me like a mistress sun
And I won't let you down
Taken by the moment now as I
As I
Surrender the crown
Give to the crown
Surrender the crown

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Head > Heels

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Yah, i'd say this song is definitely about sex.
