I got into this song when I was doing alot of uppers. It is a metaphor on many different levels but to me at the time in my life it seemed that the speed which makes your heart beat faster and faster and after so long when the heart is about to give out you can feel your brain cooking inside of your skull. Thats why the heart is the coal and the brain is the burger. The push things out through my mouth and get refilled through my ears was to me about how on speed you talk and talk and talk and then you drive and listen to music thus getting refilled through your ears. I was always on the way to god knows where. And more then anything on speed, after being awake days...The days really do go so slow and the years they do go so fast. I would assume I just made this song fit my personal experiences at the time but i feel it might be the actual meaning of the song to modest mouse to some degree since they are horrible drug addicts and they do drive quite a bit, but what do i know.
