This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Walking
Waiting
Alone without a care
Hoping
Hating
Things I can't bear
Did you think it's cool
To walk right up
And take my life
And fuck it up
Well did you?
I see hell in your eyes
Taken in by surprise
Touching you makes me feel alive
Touching you makes me die inside
Walking Waiting
Alone without a care
Hoping
Hating
Things I can't bear
Did you think it's cool
To walk right up
And take my life
And fuck it up
Well did you?
I hate you
I see hell in your eyes
Taken in by surprise
Touching you makes me feel alive
Touching you makes me die inside
I've slept so long without you
It's tearing me apart too
How'd it get this far
Playing games with this old heart
I've killed a million petty souls
But I couldn't kill you
I've slept so long without you
I see hell in your eyes
Taken in by surprise
Touching you makes me feel alive
Touching you made me die inside
Waiting
Alone without a care
Hoping
Hating
Things I can't bear
Did you think it's cool
To walk right up
And take my life
And fuck it up
Well did you?
I see hell in your eyes
Taken in by surprise
Touching you makes me feel alive
Touching you makes me die inside
Walking Waiting
Alone without a care
Hoping
Hating
Things I can't bear
Did you think it's cool
To walk right up
And take my life
And fuck it up
Well did you?
I hate you
I see hell in your eyes
Taken in by surprise
Touching you makes me feel alive
Touching you makes me die inside
I've slept so long without you
It's tearing me apart too
How'd it get this far
Playing games with this old heart
I've killed a million petty souls
But I couldn't kill you
I've slept so long without you
I see hell in your eyes
Taken in by surprise
Touching you makes me feel alive
Touching you made me die inside

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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
this song was sung by JD in the "queen of the damned" movie. some of the QoD songs are sung by other artists on the soundtrack.
whoa dude its was produced by jonathon davis bro andf it was sung by jay gordon of orgy hello like go to buzztone.com/queenofthedamed and ull frickin hear jay gordon singin the friggin song
thanks nirvana, screen, have you even heard the fucking song?
actually, nirvana and digital, in the movie it was sung by jon davis of korn...so was System, Redeemer, Forsaken, and Not Meant For Me...on the soundtrack they were sung by different people as he said...so just stop trying to sound smart and shut the fuck up you assholes
Also, the only reason it wasn't sung on the soundtrack by Jon was because of contract issues. Either way I like all the versions of the songs.
I like both versions of the songs, just that. You cant hear 2nd one by Jon Devis without listening to concert from the movie! So I listen to Jay Gordon version.
no matter who sang those 5 songs on the album, i think that the way jon davis sang them in the movie was way better.
most tracks on the soundtrack have indeed sung by other artist. Did u know: Jay gordon of orgy, sung most songs that JD sung in the movie.
William Ruhlmann (singer disturbed) did a lot of those songs too.
Bass player of Limp-Bizkit played more than half of the bass lines in the mov AND on the s.t.
i love jd's voice coming from stu townsend's mouth. ahhh, i really want QoD dvd and soundtrack. anywho, this is an awesome song to say the least. it's a great paradox on abusive or s/m relationships. that's why i like this song so much. it also paints a morbid mural of deception and lust, but isn't that what relationships end up to be any way? what were we thinking when we said the word love, then we died and went to hell.
There are JD versions of the Queen of the Damned songs out there, and I've even got 'em on my computer. They're on some KoRn website. You'll find it if you look.
