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.
It's all gonna break
When I was a kid, you fucked me in the ass
But I took my pen to paper and I passed
You know I love the shit, 'cause the shit it tastes so good
I got pastures waiting in the woods
'Cause it's all gonna break
It's all gonna break
Treat me like a sign, sounds like so, oh well
I know times like these are the hell
And when you do the tricks, the tricks look so good
I got buried rumors waiting in the woods
And they try to climb awake
And call me over
Skies they rape and skies are sober
Minds they fake and minds rolled over
It's good, it's good, it's good
I know that you're dying
I know that it's true
I know there's seven thousand things you rather be and rather do
And I know that you fuck what you love
And you love what you fuck
I'll keep them out girl, I'll keep it true
I'll do anything inside the skin of you
'Cause I know that the sound of your heart
Is a god I can trust
Like a man
Not a boy
I don't love, I just fight with the violence in ourselves
It's all gonna break
And you all want the lovely music to save your lives
And you all want the lovely music to save your lives
Keep it coming
There is no lie to save your life
Keep it coming
This is the lie to save your life
Why are you always fucking ghosts?
Why are you always fucking ghosts?
Why?
It's been such a long
Life that we trust
Your heart is a whore
And love is just lust
You want what you can't
And you can't cause of fear
We've got to get
Out of here
Why are you always?
Its been and it settles down and fights to love
Its all gonna break
When I was a kid, you fucked me in the ass
But I took my pen to paper and I passed
You know I love the shit, 'cause the shit it tastes so good
I got pastures waiting in the woods
'Cause it's all gonna break
It's all gonna break
Treat me like a sign, sounds like so, oh well
I know times like these are the hell
And when you do the tricks, the tricks look so good
I got buried rumors waiting in the woods
And they try to climb awake
And call me over
Skies they rape and skies are sober
Minds they fake and minds rolled over
It's good, it's good, it's good
I know that you're dying
I know that it's true
I know there's seven thousand things you rather be and rather do
And I know that you fuck what you love
And you love what you fuck
I'll keep them out girl, I'll keep it true
I'll do anything inside the skin of you
'Cause I know that the sound of your heart
Is a god I can trust
Like a man
Not a boy
I don't love, I just fight with the violence in ourselves
It's all gonna break
And you all want the lovely music to save your lives
And you all want the lovely music to save your lives
Keep it coming
There is no lie to save your life
Keep it coming
This is the lie to save your life
Why are you always fucking ghosts?
Why are you always fucking ghosts?
Why?
It's been such a long
Life that we trust
Your heart is a whore
And love is just lust
You want what you can't
And you can't cause of fear
We've got to get
Out of here
Why are you always?
Its been and it settles down and fights to love
Its all gonna break

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Wow, this is an amazing song. It has so much life to it. My only complaint here is the lyrics. Possibly the best song on their new CD but its so disgusting. It makes me feel gross when i listen to it but i cant deny it, its just too good. I woul definatly not even want to be caught listening to it hahaha
