Cover art for Lapse lyrics by Envy on the Coast

yeah this song doesnt seem,to me,to be talking about herione. Im thinking its morphine,like she is in pain and needs the morphine to go to sleep.

Predisposed to forget the best part The story where the hero dies without regard Made sure that the needle is clean When I let myself fall asleep And all I kept was a piece of your picture It slipped from my fingers When I slid into my dreams

in this part i totally picture his grandmother in a hospital bed,with a picture of brian in her fingers.

It's not as deep as it seems And unfair as it may be I'm just here to remind you Remind you not to forget to remember me (x2)

this part to me seems like,shes not the same person she was anymore."and unfair as it may be im just here to remind you not to forget to remember me" that part seems like the its unfair that this had to happen to her,and that she's only alive so that the dont forget to remember her.

I know you know how it feels To make a clean break My bones are your bones My home is your home You must be so confused I got scared and ran away from you Oh sweet divine predicament I can't hide, I can't change the evident

this is him relating to her"I know you know how it feels To make a clean break My bones are your bones My home is your home"

the "you must be so confused" part is probably talking about her disease,she's confused all the time and this hurts him so he didnt want to see that anymore and just stopped visiting her.but theres no way to run from the truth."Oh sweet divine predicament I can't hide, I can't change the evident"

Now that I've dodged your questions so much I don't possess the strength to answer straight And no, I'm not afraid At least not to die I'm afraid to live and not remember why Sweet chemical indifference I can't stop, can't change the evidence

this is again talking about her disease,he asks her questions like how are you grandma or do you remember who i am, and she doesnt.And the part about her not being afriad to die is probably him talking for her,he knows his grandmother very well and knows how she must feel about this situation.

Predisposed to perpetual sickness I refuse to let you all be witness Make the sure the needle is clean When you let me go back to sleep And situate the piece of her picture Underneath my fingers It protects me in my dreams

this part may be either his granmother talking or maybe him,he/her doesnt want everyone to see how bad this sickness is getting so she'd rather ask for morphine and fall asleep with the picture of brian inbetween her fingers.that part is so cute, it protects her in her dreams.

well thats my take on it,please give me your feedback on this interpretation.Im not saying that im right about the meaning of this song i could be way off

mmm, I think that you did a great job at interpreting that.

That's pretty much exactly what I thought about the song. You worded it a lot better than I ever could have though >.<

clap, clap, clap clap wooh. that was probably the greatest interpretation of a song i have ever seen. its a lot better that the "heroine" interpretists
