Honestly, and don't go off on me for my own opinion but I personally think that this song can be interperated however we wish. To me, it reminds me of someone's need to protect someone from any possible harm - whether harm from themselves or another person. I say this because "I'll be the one to protect you from your enemies and your choices" and "Isolate and save you from yourself" sounds like something a mother or father might say to their children, seeing as how I have heard this several times in my lifetime. Then again it impacts me because it reminds me of the Soldiers at war and how they wish to "protect you from your enemies and your choices." Music video's do NOT give the meaning of the song, i mean come on people! Have you seen music video's these days? They tend to have NOTHING to do with the songs, just saying. Unlike everyone here, I have not heard these "porn sounds." Just because someone grunts, does not mean they are having sex. I grunt when being kicked in the stomach, so the sounds you may hear could because it's a representation of someone being hurt. "They don't give a fuck about you like I do." could also refer to an obsessive ex boyfriend or girlfriend. There are voices, girls and guys, but i don't hear any sex sounds honestly. I hear fighting, anguish and moaning (Pain, not from sex.) As humans, we will hear whatever we THINK is there. Confusing lyrics happens a LOT. Nonetheless about the song's possible true meaning - It rocks, i go into a sort of...trance when I listen to it and it makes my mind race. Unless lyrics are straightforward and make it OBVIOUS what the song is about, more than likely the artist wants the person listening to simply interperate it their own way. Music is a powerful thing so when we listen to a song and try to find a meaning that was never specifically there in the first place, it makes us listen to it more, buy more of their cds and have your own meanings to a song.
i think its more a satire on how the US government has taken away freedoms in the name of saving its citizens. "I'll be the one to protect you from ...
Isolate and save you from yourself" if taken as said from the government (which the government has alread pretty much).

of course, maynard's lyrics in both tool and apc are very vague and open to interpertation, and yours is right because you came up with it.

you have a lot of knowledge. while i was reading this i was like "dam this dude (i camm everyone dudes no matter what gender) is smart". Like you, i am smart the way you are....exept I feel that you beat me on this one. I didnt think of the over obsessive boyfriend thing...but yes i definitelly agree with all you said; about how this can be intrepeted in many ways. there is no right or wrong answer, that's the beauty of it, because we get to feel good about what our responses about it are. Even if someone doesnt...

Even if someone doesnt agree, that person shouldnt care because everyone has different opponions when it comes to something like this, therefore, everyone would be agreeing and dissagreeing with each other,...the important part is to keep thinking about what you believe in, and not change your mind about it because more are going against you. The only thing about which has right and wrong is when it comes to like in what decade did the Holocaust took place? the answer would be 1940's and there is no other answer, because that's the right one, but when it comes to intrepeting something, or giving an oppinion about something there is never a right or wrong answer, just the satisfaction that you were able to think deeper into the meaning of something. So i totally agree with you dude...keep doing what you are doing, that is telling others that there are many different things to say, and no wrong or right answer, and jus keep being yourself, because that's the great way to go through life :)
