I swear sometimes you're taking me for granted
I swear sometime you're a whore
I swear but I know there ain't no reason
Cause everything is such a bore

At night I had a dream, though it made me sick
Saw you in your bedroom sucking someone else's dick, (my goodness!)
My friends all laughed, said it was my fault
Said it's time that it happened to me
But I know that the show was much more than a blow
So I'm waiting for the tide to get low
Waiting for the tide to get low

If I was an ant, live upon the wall
Tell me baby would it make any difference at all
If I was a roach on a tree tell me would you smoke me?
Bright lights put me in a trance
But it ain't house music, makes me want to dance (word)
I don't gamble but I bet
I'm gonna die if I don't get a cigarette
Hold me close I always play the mack
With the monkey on my back.

    General Comment:First line (Song Title) and Last line are very powerful... we all pick up an addiction to get rid of one(weed + Heroin)... Lines 1-3... heroin(addiction) can affect everyone... Line 4 cause life is so fucking boring(which we all understand)... Dreams are our conscious, our truth) whats worse than having another fool sucking your girls dick... we all experience it... Just when we realize addiction affects so many of us... We're not that fucking special... "friends all laughed" because of their experience... " happened to me" our experience... Line 11-14 is about our self denial. How we as humans need to be different... but we really are not... We make decisions from the choices given to us... be right back... do you agree with me...

    General Comment:This song is def sublime. I heard them play this at a sublime concert.

    I think this song is about a girl that cheats in you and how it feels.

    General Comment:I think he was trying to tell her that he loves her so much and she should appreciate him more.

    He doesn't want to be just another man to her he wants to be her everything.

    He knew he had done bad stuff in his time so he thinks that karma is coming to bite him in the ass and he's paranoid a bit so he's smoking a bunch. :P

    General Comment:i take back what i said, i was confused about the mac part, i thought he was playing the mac while he was going out with his girl, but now i realize that he was a jerk to alot of girls, and when he finally fell for one she did to him what he did to many girls. i dont think that he treated her badly in any way, i think he worships her and she treats him like shit, thats why he asks
    "if I was an ant crawlin' upon the wall
    tell me baby would it make no difference at all"
    i dont really get the tide part though, maybe hes waiting to see if anything changes or something i dont know.

    General Comment:I think, It's about a relationship gone wrong. He doesn't treat her right and his friends notice. People warned him that something would go wrong and some point. They dont spend time with eachother as much, she is hardly around so he is convinced she is cheating on him and it doesnt help that he had a dream about it. He feels like she doesnt pay as much attention to him. The whole situation is just bothering him in general and he feels the relationship will end soon.


    btw; the guitar solo at the end... amazing.

    General Comment:i think its about how hes had girls cheat on him n he doesnt want it to happen with this one cus he cares about her n he is scared she will cus of his exis n the fact that he did n the line "I swear but I know there ain't no reason
    'cuz everything is such a bore"
    think that means it doesnt really matter if she is cus if he thinks she is it effects him just the same
