I try to stay on top of you
To hold your body down
Your shaking seems to hinder every grasp that I had found
Moving every inch around me
To defuse your private bomb
I stretch myself surrounding and protecting you from harm
I use a wallet for your mouth so when you bite you will not bleed
I drilled a wire through my cheek and let it down and out my sleeve
And now you're pulling out the best of me
Yeah, which never ever comes
This wire's all that's left of me and it's hooked within my gums within my gums
So drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
(So drain it) so drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
(You've got to drain it)
As proof to show I'd bleed for this I'd cut myself to shame
To get to know this masochist who's stolen my first name
Pretending he's a teacher holding all my weight at ease
But the teacher seems to split in two destroying both his knees
Now crawling I position myself below your broken wings
I lift your feathered left arm where you hide your heart from me
I never noticed it was swollen with the touch of brutal pain
I never knew a heart could live inside the rust from all your rain
All your rain
So drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
(So drain it) so drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
(You've got to drain it)
I didn't think to bring a wash cloth or to rub away the dirt
Myself and I, we share this barely-beating heart of hurt
And when the hurt comes there's an argument
A fight to save a smile
A small attack on human tears to dry them for a while
A dream we all should count on, yeah, a vision I believe
In where confidence is found attached to wires on our sleeve
In where loneliness is history
Told to pack his shit and leave
And where guidance is a fortune told to help in time of need
And where crying isn't secret, it's the art of how we grieve
And lessons are the key to every goal I will achieve, I will achieve
So drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
(So drain it) so drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
(You've got to drain it)
So drill it, so drill it, so hard
(So drain it) so drill it, so drill it, so hard
(You've got to drain it)

Im sorry guys, but it is so obvious that this song has nothing to do with having seizures. You just simply don't drill wires through your cheek while your'e trying to keep someone from swallowing their own tungue. But you might do everything you can to hold youself down to protect yourself from you. This song is so obviously not about any other girl or a relationship with any girl because it gives no indication to any of that. Does not once mention her or she. It doesnt mention boyfriend, girlfriend or husband and wife. It clearly mentions a teacher and a masochist who is clearly the same person. The teacher has no choice but to see that the masochist is protected in order to protect himself. The teacher is basically telling his other self (the masochist) can't keep living his fucked up life. A double personality has to be rough when one feels the need to defeat the other. The teacher part of him wants the masochist part of him to get off the bullshit before he kills him, which in turn would kill himself. The song explains it as if the two had out of body double personalities. Now! I will be able to explain exactly what this song is about with one little line from the song that will prove it all. First of all, he is the teacher that is totally aware of the masochist that dwells within him. The teacher is trying to keep the masochist under control by holding his own body down. It's a love hate relations between these personalities that cant be sepperated and the only other way would be for one to kill the other, which in turn would kill himself. Are you guys ready for that one line that proves my theory? "Where lonliness is history" Saying that lonliness is history is implying that he will never feel alone again. And we know there is only one person that you can never be alone from.. Yourself.
