3 Inch Horses, Two Faced Monsters Lyrics

some of times when it says "you never die and you never grow old" it sounds to me like Brock's saying "you never die WHEN you never grow old" which makes a lot more sense, its kind of like a burnout rather than fade away kind of thing. as far the whole song overall, i feel like the first couple of verses are obviously him talking to a girl and saying something she doesnt agree with and that makes him feel like she's a completely different person, hence the two headed monster thing. and he uses that as an example when it comes down to the last verse, that people generally suck and we as a species and civilization are getting sucked into a tar pit. where i see the three inch horses coming from, is that he's trying to say that things like animals or bugs that we just look at being small and insignificant are just watching us kill ourselves through the trappings of society, like feeling the need to agree on every topic with a significant other. obviously just my opinion, and someone mightve already said this but i didnt read all of the comments on this page, so whatever. sorry if my thoughts are too unorganized to read comprehensibly.
