Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
Oh
There's no tomorrow
Life is but an echo
Scars become mementos
This is war (war)
Extinction
Ashes on your pale skin
Love becomes a symptom
Of the cure
Initiate cyberhex
Eliminate threat
I'd pull the sun from the sky
To freeze the future of time
And drift as one through the infinite (hold on)
I found asylum inside
Your armageddon eyes
I'd kill to kiss your apocalypse
Cold and corrosive
Fatal diagnosis, ring around the roses
Say goodbye (say goodbye)
We broke it down, to build it up
'Cause analogue life's digital enough
Initiate the cyberhex (cyberhex)
The only way to win is to reconnect
Stay alive, stay alive
I'd pull the sun from the sky
To freeze the future of time
And drift as one through the infinite (hold on)
I found asylum inside
Your armageddon eyes
I'd kill to kiss your apocalypse
Do you wanna live? (yeah)
Are you willing to die? (hoorah)
When heaven falls, I will be your light
Love will survive
In this hell, you are my paradise, ugh
Ahh, walk with me to the edge
Take my hand, oblivion
My heart is yours till we meet again
I'll see you in oblivion
I found asylum inside
Your armageddon eyes
And drift as one through the infinite (oh, oh)
And though our fates synchronized
I wasn't willing to die
Until I kissed your apocalypse
Pick it up
Annihilate our end of days
Love will find a way
Death shatters, and after
A thousand suns (suns)
Hope has not rust (rust)
Love has found a way
I will not terminate
I will annihilate
There's no tomorrow
Life is but an echo
Scars become mementos
This is war (war)
Extinction
Ashes on your pale skin
Love becomes a symptom
Of the cure
Initiate cyberhex
Eliminate threat
I'd pull the sun from the sky
To freeze the future of time
And drift as one through the infinite (hold on)
I found asylum inside
Your armageddon eyes
I'd kill to kiss your apocalypse
Cold and corrosive
Fatal diagnosis, ring around the roses
Say goodbye (say goodbye)
We broke it down, to build it up
'Cause analogue life's digital enough
Initiate the cyberhex (cyberhex)
The only way to win is to reconnect
Stay alive, stay alive
I'd pull the sun from the sky
To freeze the future of time
And drift as one through the infinite (hold on)
I found asylum inside
Your armageddon eyes
I'd kill to kiss your apocalypse
Do you wanna live? (yeah)
Are you willing to die? (hoorah)
When heaven falls, I will be your light
Love will survive
In this hell, you are my paradise, ugh
Ahh, walk with me to the edge
Take my hand, oblivion
My heart is yours till we meet again
I'll see you in oblivion
I found asylum inside
Your armageddon eyes
And drift as one through the infinite (oh, oh)
And though our fates synchronized
I wasn't willing to die
Until I kissed your apocalypse
Pick it up
Annihilate our end of days
Love will find a way
Death shatters, and after
A thousand suns (suns)
Hope has not rust (rust)
Love has found a way
I will not terminate
I will annihilate

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Motionless In White has this comment pinned at the top under the official video for the song on youtube, it\'s direct from the band - Cyberhex is my love letter to you, our fans, for everything you have done for me over the course of some of the most mentally taxing few years I’ve had to go through. At times where I felt like my world was ending, as well as the world around us, it was always in my mind that I was able to turn to the special relationship we have created together for help, and I cannot thank you enough for that. Outside of my own personal experiences, It has been equally as fulfilling to me to see that in the face of tireless forces that continue to try and perpetuate hatred and negativity towards so many of us coexisting on this planet, we have all stood together to resist and fight back knowing that love and compassion will always prevail. We ARE the resistance. We ARE Cyberhex. I love you. Thank you.
