its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Oh my God
This town, it feels like a headache
And all the words inside my mouth won't come through.
I've got this pain in my head that I can't shake
When I remind myself I can't get to you.
And it rained all day
And I figured it out I'm not the person that I used to be
Washed away
Please someone make me okay
Because I'm feeling like I might...
Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won't stay away.
I watched you change with the seasons
I wrote you letters but I forgot to mention that
I'm a wreck, I'm a mess, you're a stranger.
Watch your face fade away
Now I'm stuck here
Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won't stay away.
She said,
"Turn your back cause you'll never understand."
I can't get through
I can't get through to you
But the silence and the shaking of your hands
Says differently to me
You watched me wait on the steps of your house
I stood outside, you refused to come out
And honestly, this is making me sick.
All this time
I tried to hide
The truth inside
But this is making me sick.
This is making me sick.
Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won't stay away.
She said,
"Turn your back cause you'll never understand."
I can't get through
I can't get through to you
But the silence and the shaking of your hands
Says differently to me
Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won't stay away.
Stay away
Some days, it seems like the clouds won't stay away.
This town, it feels like a headache
And all the words inside my mouth won't come through.
I've got this pain in my head that I can't shake
When I remind myself I can't get to you.
And it rained all day
And I figured it out I'm not the person that I used to be
Washed away
Please someone make me okay
Because I'm feeling like I might...
Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won't stay away.
I watched you change with the seasons
I wrote you letters but I forgot to mention that
I'm a wreck, I'm a mess, you're a stranger.
Watch your face fade away
Now I'm stuck here
Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won't stay away.
She said,
"Turn your back cause you'll never understand."
I can't get through
I can't get through to you
But the silence and the shaking of your hands
Says differently to me
You watched me wait on the steps of your house

And honestly, this is making me sick.
All this time

But this is making me sick.
This is making me sick.
Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,

She said,

I can't get through
I can't get through to you
But the silence and the shaking of your hands
Says differently to me
Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
'Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won't stay away.
Stay away
Some days, it seems like the clouds won't stay away.

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

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.
