And I step into a black hole
take a step a back so

and I’m looking out a window
when I see the wind blow
and maybe I won’t know where I am

and I can’t quite make out what you said
as you stepped thru a portal to my empty head
and I can’t quite make out what you said
as you stepped thru a portal to my empty head

here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head

and I’m dreaming my desire
dreams are on fire
wanna hook a wire to my brain

and I’m living in limbo
sitting in limbo
hoping that I won’t end up insane

and I can’t quite make out what you said
as you step into a portal to my empty head
and I can’t quite make out what you said
as you step into a portal to my empty head

here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head

here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head

here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head
here’s my portal to an empty head

    This song is about the future brah. Stephen Hawkings believes in black holes and time travel. In the future we will also have wormholes that will shoot us across dimensions. But this guy is a time traveler and he's in a space suit and gets sucked into a black hole and it erases his memory.

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.

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
