in the east they can meditate
They can recreate the sound of all and bring us home
I think I'll go there some day
Maybe for a holiday
Maybe just light a candle, take a seat for the ride

And you don't need no money to fly, to truly fly away (recreate the sound of all)
And you don't need no car to truly ride, truly ride away (recreate the sound of all)

In the west we think we're the best
We've shown the whole wide world that money is all we care for
Someday the scientists will see there's no such thing as gravity
They'll all just light a candle, take a seat for the ride

And you don't need no money to fly, to truly fly away (recreate the sound of all)
And you don't need no car to truly ride, truly ride away (recreate the sound of all)

As you ascend in silence, all doubt behind you
You reach the summit my friend and find your destiny

And you don't need no money to fly, to truly fly away (recreate the sound of all)
And you don't need no car to truly ride, truly ride away (recreate the sound of all)
And you don't need no money to fly, to truly fly away (recreate the sound of all)
And you don't need no car to truly ride, truly ride away (recreate the sound of all)
To truly ride away

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.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
