Just heard this song for the first time, but I'm assuming the "I'm not something you ate" is a reference to the Garden of Eden. Matt writes earlier in the song, "but just like the daughters of Eve, you like bitter fruit from forbidden trees."
The first person of the song is saying, "You can't find Me in the fruit you took from the tree." You may have the "knowledge of good and evil," but you don't know Me. "I'm not something you ate."
Wow dude. This was great. I've been trying to map down the context of that line for the longest and you just nailed it like if it was nothing. Just understanding that little line makes me feel rewarded for having kept the song. I didn't like it too much and I was considering deleting it, but knowing The Classic Crime's philosophical hooks, I didn't want to overlook anything.
Thanks a lot.
