Hey man, evening on the ground
And there is no one else around
So you will blame me
Blame me for the rocks
And baby bones and broken lock
On the garden
Garden wall of Eden
For the spider bites
And all your love as we were
We were born to fuck each other
One way or another
But I'll only lie
Down by the waterside at night
Hey man, tiny baby tears
I will collect a million years
And you can blame me
Blame me, I will wear it
In the empty, hollow part of my garden
Garden wall of Eden
And the clamor as they raise the curtain
You will, you will never make me learn
To lay beneath the mountain
Cause I'll only lie
Down by the waterside at night
And there is no one else around
So you will blame me
Blame me for the rocks
And baby bones and broken lock
On the garden
Garden wall of Eden
For the spider bites
And all your love as we were
We were born to fuck each other
One way or another
But I'll only lie
Down by the waterside at night
Hey man, tiny baby tears
I will collect a million years
And you can blame me
Blame me, I will wear it
In the empty, hollow part of my garden
Garden wall of Eden
And the clamor as they raise the curtain
You will, you will never make me learn
To lay beneath the mountain
Cause I'll only lie
Down by the waterside at night

It's about the sin of Lilith. According to legend, she was made from dirt like Adam and she was meant to be his equal. Adam told her to submit but she refused and so she left him to be on her own. God confronted Lilith and told her to return to her husband. She refused once more and was punished for disobedience by being made into a succubus. I think is the song is meant to be her response to her ex-husband after all the unfortunate events had taken place. To survive her suffering, she eats the infant descendants of Adam and Eve. Whether or not this song is about that, I have wondered if Sam Beam created this album to praise the more feminine side of humanity. I read The Da Vinci Code recently and I came to understand that there are people in the world who believe in something called the sacred feminine. Granted these are my thoughts and my thoughts only, I have listened to this awesome EPs many times over since I have purchased it and I have sensed a strong feminine presence throughout it. I can't speak for Sam Beam and I can't help but make that connection. Whatever the theme of the album, it's my favorite EP after Jar of Flies and probably the best album so far this year.
