| Hot Water Music – Drag My Body Lyrics | 11 years ago |

It's tough, strongly believing in something for so long, then being confronted with strong evidence against your beliefs. Generally, that's how I feel about this. Having people you look up to, eating up every word they say.. but one day, or through the course of weeks, months, years even.. you realize it was all for nothing. Personally, it reminds me of how I was a "Neo-Conservative", Warhawk, Big Government Statist, politically and philosophically.. then several events made me reconsider.. it bugged me at first, but I consumed alternatives.. I'm happy to say I'm currently standing and holding steady. |

Here Me Out: New Perspective for Everyone.. It's a long read, but I tried to make it enjoyable. To me, this is ALL about music; musical artists, so called "voices of the generation", and the way they, along with their labels, have tied a lasso around what GOOD music and lyrics used to be and jumped down a never ending slide. I almost feel like Edgar, the lead singer and song writer, is fighting to keep the sanctity of music alive. Trying to "Run" back up, while sieving through all the garbage going down, "Hey look! There's Britney Spears!.. slut," with his feet running a mile a minute up the slide. For music advocates, turning on the radio today often results in vomiting all over the place. Consider the time this Album was released.. 1999 was the year and the top hits were: Livin' the Vida Loca, Hit Me Baby One More Time, and Genie in a Bottle.. and ever since it has been "contagious" and quite honestly I'm more than "bored" with it. Is this really music? Is this the "prize" that has evolved? Every day a new hit comes out, and 9 times out of 10 is fabricated, and regurgitated with the same old riffs, lyrics, and metaphors. You really have to keep your eye out the "messenger" mixed in with all the crap. Maybe this "messenger" is the "cure" for this "processed sanity". Britney Spears was popular for way too long, and influenced the younger generation of the time, and now, what she did years ago was normal, and 11 year old girls showing more skin with less clothes is sane to the general society. Every new hit comes out, my heart, body, and soul "weakens with each voice that sings," "In this world of purchase," whatever can make the most money, is the best music for the record labels and radio stations. So, there it is. How I feel when I hear this song. Not your typical: I'm depressed with society, and I have to do something or wait for someone to help me out to be happy. But, who knows, maybe I'm wrong. |

To me, this song is about being cheated on by a significant other. "I dragged this lake looking for corpses Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards Pieces of planes and black box recorders Don't lie" Sounds like he's going around trying to figure out if anything has happened. This investigation started by his pre-occupation of his "sick sixth senses". The senses being that something was going on behind his back, but couldn't prove it because she had someone disproving it, alibi. |

Soldier is over sea's while his mother is dying back home. Upon his return, his mother has passed, so he meets her at her grave and shoots himself. Powerful stuff.. Reminds me off "Over and Out," "Over and out," she said, from a hospital bed "For what it's worth, it doesn't hurt, don't cry." "Over and out," he said, with a .45 to his head "The war has taken everything from me, it's all I see so..." |
