(sorry, this turned out to be way too long.)
Agreed. Kind of rediculous. You need to refer to what part of the song you're talking about more. Instead of saying "the 3rd and 4th line" you should just repeat what lyrics you're talking about. You could be referring to the 3rd or 4th song in the entire song, or in any of the stanzas.
I see this entire song as talking about one person. Sitting on his computer, rotting away. "that a rotting corpse qualifies as a show" In other words, you're rotting there while putting on a constant show for yourself on your computer. I personally know how that is, since I do it in all of my free time (such as now).
The idea is that you know you're wasting your time, but don't have the ability/energy/motivation to do otherwise. Entertaining yourself here and now is more important to you then worrying about the future.
"We'll play that one later
They've launched their antenna claws
Called in a favor while you're choking on their tentacles"
That part shows me that this person playing these games on his computer feels the need to do something away from his comptuer, but is pulled back to his computer for other reasons, such as to help someone out ("Called in a favor") in a game.
When you are asked to do something online for a buddy in a game, you usually do it to be a good friend. But you are being a bad friend by wasting yours and their time playing that game. But somehow waste of time isn't in your mind anymore because you have been given a task. As long as you have a task to do, you're suddenly not wasting time.
Then later on it talks about going to sleep and the "buzzing" in your head, like thinking about what your next task will be then imaging it as you go to sleep.
Later on it seems to be talking about kids who will live off their parents(or others) further then they should. Going to the refrigerator for food, then going abck to the game to complete more "tasks."
Then the song says "it's in the way, your ~will~ - not break" I see this as the parent's ~will~ to have their kid outside playing or doing something productive. Maybe the song writer telling the kid's parents not to give up on him.
Then it ends off repeating-
"you're falling asleep
don't worry about the curtain
you're falling asleep
look in the spinning line"
Now I'm gunna analyze the hell out of this part.
"Don't worry about the cuntain." In that, I see a kid in his room looking outside while sitting on his computer.
"Look in the spinning line." Usually hypnotizing is done by a shiny object swinging like a pendulum. But I see this spinning line as one of those black spirals on a white background that is known to hypnotize people as well. That is your monitor.
"You're falling asleep." The command that your computer is giving you. "I will now count backwards from 10." That kind of thing.
So in the end, your computer not only has a tentacle choke hold on you, forcing you to look at the spinning line. But it is also hypnotizing you into a perpetual cycle of going onto your computer, then realizing you're wasting your time, then going back to it once again.
