I have always been touched by this song but have only recently understood the meaning. What Jenkins is trying to convey here is that of the slow decay of a drug addict. The casualness of his voice as he talks about the graphic content represents the thoughts of someone who has given up on suceeding in life in turn for a confusing and sad junkie life style," Now the cops will get me But girl if you would let me I'll take your pants off I got a little bit of blow we could both get off". He then goes on to explain the unescapable end to a life time of bad decisions, "And death slides close to me Won't grow old to be A junkie wine-o creep". When he says "Hollywood glamorized my wrath" he is talking about the way movies, tv shows, and popular culture glorify violence, drugs, and alcohol. The end gets me though. Slow motion see me let go. I've watched one of my once close friends slip into a horrible opiate addiction. Just like slow motion
