its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Oh baby don’t you break now in this town
It’s only 24 hours till I’m out
And I’m down on the ground on the way to your doorstep
Well if your down then I’m down
We’re gonna tear shit up in this town
It’s a shame that the plane were I’m caged doesn’t go any faster
You’ve got the chance it’s in your eyes
I see it, I see it
You’ve got the chance to make this right
I need it, I need it
You’ve got the suicide smile and a look in your eyes
That says you were on fire and I’m burning up inside
If you were a lie I’d believe you in no time
Maybe we’re crazy but all we know
Baby you were on fire, you desire
You’re every word that means lust, I can’t lie
You’re just like the pill that I take to make everything heartless
And you’ve got the chance it’s in your eyes
I see it, I see it
Well if you’re down then I’m down
We’re gonna tear shit up in this town
It’s a shame that the plane were I’m caged doesn’t go any faster
You’ve got the chance it’s in your eyes
I see it, I see it
You’ve got the chance to make this right
I need it I need it
(And I think you should know)
You’ve got the suicide smile and a look in your eyes
That says you were on fire and I’m burning up inside
If you were a lie I’d believe you in no time
Maybe we’re crazy but all we know [x2]
Don’t say it, I’m desperately waiting
Don’t say it, I’m desperately waiting
It’s okay you’re afraid of the way everyone wants to
befriend you the same and it constantly haunts me
Cause it’s not for sale
You wanna count backwards from ten [x2]
It’s okay you’re afraid of the way everyone wants to
befriend you the same and it constantly haunts me
You’ve got the suicide smile and a look in your eyes
That says you are on fire and I’m burning up inside
If you were a lie I’d believe you in no time
(Maybe we’re crazy but I know)
You’ve got the suicide smile and a look in your eyes that says you are on fire
And I’m burning up inside
If you were a lie I’d believe you in no time
Maybe we’re crazy but all we know
It’s only 24 hours till I’m out
And I’m down on the ground on the way to your doorstep
Well if your down then I’m down
We’re gonna tear shit up in this town
It’s a shame that the plane were I’m caged doesn’t go any faster
You’ve got the chance it’s in your eyes
I see it, I see it
You’ve got the chance to make this right
I need it, I need it
You’ve got the suicide smile and a look in your eyes
That says you were on fire and I’m burning up inside
If you were a lie I’d believe you in no time
Maybe we’re crazy but all we know
Baby you were on fire, you desire
You’re every word that means lust, I can’t lie
You’re just like the pill that I take to make everything heartless
And you’ve got the chance it’s in your eyes
I see it, I see it
Well if you’re down then I’m down
We’re gonna tear shit up in this town
It’s a shame that the plane were I’m caged doesn’t go any faster
You’ve got the chance it’s in your eyes
I see it, I see it
You’ve got the chance to make this right
I need it I need it
(And I think you should know)
You’ve got the suicide smile and a look in your eyes
That says you were on fire and I’m burning up inside
If you were a lie I’d believe you in no time
Maybe we’re crazy but all we know [x2]
Don’t say it, I’m desperately waiting
Don’t say it, I’m desperately waiting
It’s okay you’re afraid of the way everyone wants to

It’s okay you’re afraid of the way everyone wants to

(Maybe we’re crazy but I know)
You’ve got the suicide smile and a look in your eyes that says you are on fire
And I’m burning up inside
If you were a lie I’d believe you in no time
Maybe we’re crazy but all we know

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.

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.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
