Cover art for Unglued lyrics by Stone Temple Pilots

i think this has a meaning that contradicts vasoline. its about a hedonist who only cares about satisfying himself, through drugs and excess

moderation is masturbation: hes basically saying do whatever the hell you want to make yourself happy. restraining yourself is pointless

what is what and what makes you feel good: life is all about pleasure

all these things i think about always come unglued: hes tried to think about life differently but all other reasoning seems to fall apart

ive got this feeling coming over me: now he thinks he understands. the feeling is happiness. hes happy being a selfish hedonist

this confusion is my illusion: life is simple, theres no mystery. he thinks we're fooling ourselves by thinking theres more out there than our own pleasure

nowhere to look but know where to find it: same thing as before. theres nothing else to look for. the meaning of life is right here

all these things im sick about always come unglued: again. hes sick of trying to be a good person. the logic in that no longer makes sense to him

i think the songs about how scott used to feel about life. things didnt make sense to him so he turned to sex drugs and rock and roll. i dont think he feels this way anymore though, based on a bunch of other songs hes written
