Should I be safe at home
A stronger man who really should know
Better than to reach the edge and
try to fight this on my own
Can I be something I have yet
to see in my close friends
They've all lost their heads
And it's bringing me down
to the place where I'm supposed to...be
Responsibly...for now
Chorus:
I want it, I need it, just one more to Satisfy
Can't help it, feel nothing and nothing feels right
Should I be safe at home
I relapse quicker than you could know
My past compulsions breed convulsions
A sorry scene unfolds
Can I be weak when I'm stable
Strong in the cradle
Strung out in a fable
Where the hero gets saved
I've tried this before
Routines and rewards
What's gonna change
(Chorus)
I tried to find , inside, something civilized
Stolen, borrowed, bought
Any remnants of a man
Tookon too much too soon too afraid to fight
Struggled lost and won just to realize that I can't understand
I want it I need it
I want it I need it
Just one more, just one more
Just one more to satisfy
Like nothing will
Like nothing will
Like nothing will
Like nothing will
Like,,,
Puzzled missing pieces
They don't fit in
Cant help it
Feel nothing
Feel nothing
A stronger man who really should know
Better than to reach the edge and
try to fight this on my own
to see in my close friends
They've all lost their heads
And it's bringing me down
to the place where I'm supposed to...be
Responsibly...for now
I want it, I need it, just one more to Satisfy
Can't help it, feel nothing and nothing feels right
I relapse quicker than you could know
My past compulsions breed convulsions
A sorry scene unfolds
Strong in the cradle
Strung out in a fable
Where the hero gets saved
I've tried this before
Routines and rewards
What's gonna change
Stolen, borrowed, bought
Any remnants of a man
Tookon too much too soon too afraid to fight
Struggled lost and won just to realize that I can't understand
I want it I need it
Just one more, just one more
Just one more to satisfy
Like nothing will
Like nothing will
Like nothing will
Like nothing will
Like,,,
They don't fit in
Cant help it
Feel nothing
Feel nothing

i think it's kinda obvious that this is about an addiction, you think?
trasta, I totally agree. His addiction destroyed him, leaving him reaching for the drug, it sounds like he tried to get over it before, he says he should know better than to reach the edge, but he gets there anyway. He relapses into his habit and his humanity is destroyed. He can't even find anything civilized inside of himself. The song is clearly about an addiction. When he gets the drug, though, he feels nothing.... which leads me to believe that his drug of choice was heroin, because once heroin is treated with methadone, it no longer affects the body when taken. In short: this song is about a man who destroyed himself with heroin.
it doesnt mean anything to me except that it is a cool song and i like it a lot.
