its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
You've sunk lower than I've ever seen,
And even though you deserved this
I tried to catch your fall
I've grown so tired of your childish threats
Know that I'll never run from anything
And I'll burn the building if I knew you'd die
And I'll pray you're a failure
And that you won't make it out alive
Here's where we prove all your fairy tales wrong
This all stops tonight
Swim in your sea of smoke until your lungs lose the fight
It's over
This all stops tonight
Or prove me wrong
What have you become trough your jealousy?
You've threatened my life, my friends and family
This is your last wrong turn in your life
And this dead end leads to a blood bath
Your blood bath
You'll never stop us with your one-man army
We would burn him alive
You'll never stop us with your one-man army
If you're such a man then bring the fight
(We're paging 1958)
We're all one and the same
We're moving on, and living our dreams
And even though you deserved this
I tried to catch your fall
I've grown so tired of your childish threats
Know that I'll never run from anything
And I'll burn the building if I knew you'd die
And I'll pray you're a failure
And that you won't make it out alive
Here's where we prove all your fairy tales wrong
This all stops tonight
Swim in your sea of smoke until your lungs lose the fight
It's over
This all stops tonight
Or prove me wrong
What have you become trough your jealousy?
You've threatened my life, my friends and family
This is your last wrong turn in your life
And this dead end leads to a blood bath
Your blood bath
You'll never stop us with your one-man army
We would burn him alive
You'll never stop us with your one-man army
If you're such a man then bring the fight
(We're paging 1958)
We're all one and the same
We're moving on, and living our dreams

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
according to wikipedia this song is about their old drummer and those were the last four digits to his cell.
