I think that this song is majorly about drug use,addiction and the life around it. i am probably over simplifying the whole song... oh... and i kinda went overboard on the examples...
Title. crooked spoons, a stereotypical way to cook up drugs are in bent spoons.
Let's lick my wounds. it is a common practice to lick the injection site after a shot.
So they say
I killed a man.
So they say
I took his head - probably that she got another person hooked...
So they say
He was a scourge - common belief is that users are just punishing them self "the scourge of drug abuse"
Digging swiftly - trying to find a vein fast.
Out of hell - so she can get high
Madness helps me save myself - to escape reality
Crooked spoons on every wall - the only thing she has to show is the results of her drug abuse
Ten gauge needles and a prayer - a 10 gauge needle is a exaggerated huge needle.
We feed until we're engorged - none stop craving,using
We preach and scream forbidden truth - they are always trying to correct the false idea about drugs and users that the general public has
We're through with you - but no one listens
I'm choosing to lose my mind - so she gives up
For you'll never wake me - is too deep in addiction to even want to get out, or, she is delusional about her own addiction
My wrists are kissed with tarnished stitches - sounds like the only reason she has to live is the drugs.
(this part i think she illustrates the drugs as a person.)
The venom that slips from your lips - every time she kiss "take drugs" she is a little more poisoned.
The tiny lies shining in your eyes - and the drugs makes her delusional to think that everything is ok
Pain in my veins - referring to iv use
shallow Hollow, incarcerated soul - trapped in addiction.
