One More Of Me Lyrics

Now that the day has come
I see myself as everyone
I am what’s all around me
No, nothing it just cannot be
Feeling has come from the sun
Like most everything and everyone
What seems lost is free from the force that slowly destroys us
And kills all matter off
Well, we don’t control the chance that plays with us
And we get existence back to hurting others
And when we go the other way it’s ourselves we hurt
But who pushes on though eventually will see
Every moment’s first
Every moment is first
What’s gone will never come back
But it exists when you think of it
And what is anything, anyway
But a series of things running through your brain
All of the fucked things you do
Are the product of what's happened to you
Whatever you create from love
Is a gift from the place which some call above
There’s only the forces of hate and love
One breaks things down and one builds them up.

One of the most beautiful song i've ever heard... though few of the lyrics are wrong here. such as last paragraph 'fun' is actually 'f*cked' and it's 'Whatever you create from love'

My Opinion
Cover art for One More Of Me lyrics by John Frusciante

I think this is about death and the state of being who we are. This is really trying to tell us how we work and how life works really.

Things only happen once, we just recreate it after that.

  • Realisation. We are all one. God is all. No, nothing it just cannot be
  • Rejection of the realisation? Perhaps saying that no thing cannot be, except what it is not Feeling has come from the sun Like most everything and everyone
  • Feeling that comes from the light within, which is the essential nature of all existence What seems lost is free from the force that slowly destroys us And kills all matter off
  • People who have shaken free their shackles of mind, seem lost. Mind identification is destroying us and all existence Well, we don't control the chance that plays with us
  • Mind encourages belief in 'the way things are', it absolves responsbility And we get existence back by hurting others
  • Mind feels empowered when affecting others And when we go the other way it's ourselves we hurt
  • When we do good, we are always taken advantage of and we 'did it to ourselves' But who pushes on through will eventually see
  • But who does good, without judgement will see Every moment's first Every moment's first
  • Now is the primary, the only - not what was, or will be, this moment, every moment. What's gone will never come back But it exists when you think of it
  • Things happen, you can remember it if you choose And what is anything, anyway But a series of things running through your brain
  • but it is gone, and now just a thing running through your brain All of the fucked things you do Are the product of whats happened to you
  • you have allowed your mind identification Whatever you create from love Is a gift from the place which some call above
  • the inner light, being, god, heaven, no-mind There's only the forces of hate and love One breaks things down and one builds them up
  • The forces of hate and love are not bound by 'fate' or 'the way things are'.
  • Hate builds up mind, Love breaks down mind. Hate encourages mind, love encourages no-mind.

Frusciante talks about the various scientific phenomenon here.

"Feeling has come from the sun Like most everything and everyone" About how of matter is from the stars with heavier elements formed in a supernova.

"What seems lost is free from the force that slowly destroys us And kills all matter off" This is about 'dark energy' which is constantly increasing in proportion to content of universe and doesn't interact with normal forces. But has sort of a negative gravitational effect instead.
