Lost sense, direction
Nobody knows my name
Confidence, correction
Don't know how to play that game
Straight line is quicker
Straight line would make me fast
I've burned my nose enough to know
That straight lines never last
Swallow your soul
And drink from this life
As you choke on your pride
We all look elsewhere
We all look elsewhere
It's safer inside doors
Nobody has to flee
Broken vessel
Passed the rocks and out to sea
Waiting, wanting
Mad with purpose
Now we come to talk to one
Who knows the answer to how
Swallow your soul
And drink from this life
As you choke on your pride
Don't waste your time if you've got it
The tides are turning now
You are not alone
They gave you their worst and you bought it
The lie has been exposed
You are not alone
Winter that comes quick in early September
The rain clouds that washed me are what I remember
The stones that I threw piled high like a mountain
Which I had to climb before I reached the fountain
If life is a riddle then riddle me this
The blood tasted sweet as it passed by my lips
Don't, don't waste your time
Don't, don't waste your time
Don't waste your time
Don't waste your time if you've got it
The tides are turning now
You are not alone, liar, liar
They gave you their worst and you bought it
The lie has been exposed
You are not alone

this has two meanings to me...
first, is obviously drugs... whether snorting pills or coc, the blood that runs down tasted sweet
second, is talking about Jesus and communion... the sins we partake in, in this instance drugs, and now taking the blood of Christ is so sweet, but at the same time while we were sinning the taste of our sins that put him on the cross was sweet for a while, he's saying he knows he's supposed to feel bad, but "riddle me this" why did it feel so good while i was high
"a straight line is quicker, a straight line would make me fast. ive burned my nose enough to know that straight lines never last" = its the easy way out to take the drugs, but hes taken it enough to know its effects dont last and you basically have to go back to facing reality.
"burned my nose" = sniffing drugs
"blood tasted sweet as it passed by my lips" = nose bleeding after sniffing drugs
"we all look elsewhere"= we all find something to rely on to get us out of our tough times, for instance some people use drugs as an escape.
"dont waste your time if youve got it" = im guessing this one is just saying the drugs are not worth it
I could be wrong with those interpretations but the song is definately about drugs, not god. Sorry to the hardcore christians i mightve offended..
Anyways, I agree with iknowbob94.
This sounds like a song about drugs.
Like I said before I think "The blood tasted sweet as it passed by my lips" is really referring to the shed blood of Jesus, and how eternal joy only comes from salvation.
A straight line is quicker
A straight line would make me fast
I've burned my nose enough to know
That straight lines never last
cocaine is quicker, cocaine makes him feel fast, but it burns enough to know the fun never last. this cant be a reference to the Holy path God has set before us because it says "That straight lines never last." Gods path for us is always there.
Kionabreeze is basicaly right.
"The blood tasted sweet as it passed by my lips"
i think this part has to do with nose bleeding after cocaine use.
just think about it. the meaning of the lyrics will pop out at you.
That part rocked i would have to say this like a hardcore mabe hardcore and emo song like blister and coffie, and woaorr poem
As for swallowing your soul, i have no idea what that means...
