Immunity
Long overdue
Contagion
I exhale you
Naive
I opened up to you
Venom in mania

Now, contagion
I exhale you

The deceiver says, he says
You belong to me
You don't wanna breathe the light of the others
Fear the light
Fear the breath
Fear the others for eternity
But I hear them now inhale the clarity
Hear the venom, the venom in
What you say inoculated

Bless this immunity
Bless this immunity
Bless this immunity

Exhale, expel
Recast my tale
Read my allegorical elegy

Enumerate
All that I'm to do
Calculating steps away from you
My own
Mitosis
Growing through
Delusion from mania

Exhale, expel
Recast my tale
Weave my allegorical elegy

Forfeit
All control
You poison
You spectacle

Exorcise the spectacle
Exorcise the malady
Exorcise the disparate
Poison for eternity
Purge me and evacuate
The venom and the fear that binds me

Unveil now
Lift away
I see you
Running

Deceiver
Chased away
A long time
Coming

    My Interpretation

    The members of Tool themselves have discussed the overall meaning of this new album "Fear Inoculum" and that the subject matter centers on the effects of growing older and becoming wiser as a result. I think that is true of this song & makes sense as I review the lyrics. Though Tool songs in my opinion almost always feature layers of depth to wade through & process, my general analysis is that this song is about the aging process, not just of the body, but of the mind and spirit. How the coming of age so to speak can either handicap or empower us, that is we can chose to succumb to it or forge through & allow ourselves to become transformed by it in an emancipated, unrepressed fashion.
