Oh as I shit I sit and wonder why
My floor's so cold and my back's broke and tired
Life is good even though it won't be long
With the candle comes emotions
Dancing the shadows on my walls
What were your thoughts
As they were flying through your mind
Compared to what you feel
From the bars you're now behind
If they could speak, what do you think they'd say to you?
I do believe you'd be better off if you just told the truth
I never had a problem till I stood face-to-face with me
And I wish there was a way for me to go inside
So I could see
All the faces of the people who have torn a piece off me
As I grew from a seed, oh to a tree
Can you feel the power of the eyes
It's hidden away five feet from where we lie
What do you taste when you take a drink with me?
Is it too much for me to ask if I was to ask you to leave?
Oh please just leave
'Cause I want to be alone
Oh, there's a fine line between love and my feelings for you
High time we washed it all away
Unkind, you watch your future burn before you
Denied the chance of any love in your life
I never had a problem till I stood face-to-face with me
And I wish there was a way for me to go inside
So I could see
All the faces of the people who have torn a piece Torn a piece off me
As I grew from a seed to a tree.
My floor's so cold and my back's broke and tired
Life is good even though it won't be long
With the candle comes emotions
Dancing the shadows on my walls
What were your thoughts
As they were flying through your mind
Compared to what you feel
From the bars you're now behind
If they could speak, what do you think they'd say to you?
I do believe you'd be better off if you just told the truth
I never had a problem till I stood face-to-face with me
And I wish there was a way for me to go inside
So I could see
All the faces of the people who have torn a piece off me
As I grew from a seed, oh to a tree
Can you feel the power of the eyes
It's hidden away five feet from where we lie
What do you taste when you take a drink with me?
Is it too much for me to ask if I was to ask you to leave?
Oh please just leave
'Cause I want to be alone
Oh, there's a fine line between love and my feelings for you
High time we washed it all away
Unkind, you watch your future burn before you
Denied the chance of any love in your life
I never had a problem till I stood face-to-face with me
And I wish there was a way for me to go inside
So I could see
All the faces of the people who have torn a piece Torn a piece off me
As I grew from a seed to a tree.

Never had a problem till I stood face to face with me
And I wish there was a way for me to go inside so I could see
All the faces of the people who have torn a piece of me
As I grew from a seed to a tree
Great lyrics Great Band Great Song
---When he was young he had a lot of run in's with the police and was arrested several times.
"What were you thoughts, as they
Were flying through your mind
Compared to what you feel from
The bars your now behind
If they could speak, what do you think
They would say to you?
I do believe you'd been better
Off if you'd just told the truth"
---He's asking himself this.
"Never had a problem till I stood face to face with me
And I wish there was a way for me to go inside so I could see
All the faces of the people who have torn a piece of me
As I grew from a seed to a tree."
--This is also his conflict with himself (as interpreted from the first line)
And he's also thinking of all the people who he has conflicted with as he was growing up (from a seed to a tree)
---Well, that's what I get from the first half of the song. I hope other people can see what I'm getting at.
As I shit I sit and wonder why my floor's so cold in my bathrobe attire
It feels good, even though it won't be long
When the chemical emotions dance with the shadows on my wall
Makes me think he's preparing for the onset of some psychedelic, taking a pre-trip shit :D
