Otherside lyrics how long

Photographs, anything that reminds you, it brings back memories and a desire to use. Maybe the photo was of a person or a place that reminded him of drugs.

Maybe he just thought of heroin or the photo reminded him. You're on the otherside and you're going to have to live there forever. Once you have that desire to use after being triggered it's extremely hard to throw off. Spillin my guts could refer to vomiting which happens during withdrawal. You love it, it shows you a wonderful time then give you hell. By slut, he is referring to abusing "her" and allowing her to abuse him Enjoying her like a slut enjoys sex then feeling dirty afterward.

It's not your friend, you defeat it, but it so easily comes back. Someone calls you. You're reminded of it by some little reason You drive past a place you've used You see a user and you're tempted to "Befriend" them and get contacts.. So many things out there can give you the urge to bring it back into your life. Then you put the needle in and pull the plunger out to register blood. Before you push it in you "pull the thread" untie the tourniquet then push in.

Then once you've used once after being clean for a while you're back on that "other side", craving, fighting the drug, all over again. SORRY for being so descriptive and explicit but this is what I understand the lyrics to be in relation to. There was an error. Very good explanation! I can also relate it to being depressed and feeling down, because there is always a reason for that, and you end up associating that depressive feeling to a lot of things, just like the drug addiction, and just like it you sometimes get "healed" and then crumble to the ground when something triggers the bad feeling again "I tear it down, i tear it down, but then it's born again" In this metaphorical interpretation, the meaning of Otherside may be the point where you feel healed from the bad, repressive thoughts, the place where you want to be, this is how i interpreted it when i first heard with thought, and not knowing of the drug addiction interpretation.

For the section "she wants to know am i still a slut", it was pretty obvious to me it reffered to depression, because just like drugs, you turn into depression's slut, and you seem to actually get addicted to the feeling of being depressed just like drug addciotion , so much that you almost enjoy it, "almost" is key here And well for the interpretation of the rest of the lyrics, you made a great job, and its pretty much got the same meaning except for the drug relations , i believe these two things are well related, and since not everyone is a drug addict but everyone get's through up's and down's, this would be a nice way for everyone to interpret it.

And that we should sort of just "Go with the Flow" Justme on February 20, Thank you for sharing that with us, anonduser. The last line from the chorus: "It's all I ever. Which would mean that "It's all I ever" ends prematurely. It abruptly trails off, like an unfinished thought. Could that be an allusion to nodding off? Also, the word "had" is the past tense of "have. Like "it's all I ever had" was a mantra he used to repeat, but this time as he says it, he realizes it is no longer true, so he stops himself mid-sentence from finishing EmeraldFox on August 03, Finally someone that knows how to listen and interpret.

Seriously, I believe most of their songs are about this very struggle of his. How could he not write about it? Brokenskull48 on August 23, And we know homeboy was an addict, so it makes sense floydandmetal on June 01, Maybe the veins in one arm collapsed and he had to use the other? Love it and it was all i need right now dumbaftointerp on June 15, My Interpretation this is a great song , and the fact the people can interpret it different ways showz its a real work of poetic art..

The term is generally pejorative and most often used as an insult, offensive term. Might as well interpret a peppers song from my inexperieced view of hard drugs. Song Meaning The song is about drug use plain and simple. Push the trigger and pull the thread is shooting up. Its the terms anyone who has shot up would know. Push the trigger is pushing the plunger. Pulling the thread is pulling the tourniquet to get the rush. Doesn't anyone who reads song lyrics have a drug history?

Pour my life into a paper cup the ashtrays full and I'm spilling my guts Pour my life into a cup is someone loaded on alcohol talking about his past. Obviously, for a long time or the ashtray wouldn't be full and he is talking about bad things he's done or he wouldn't be spilling his guts. Doesn't anyone who reads song lyrics have a drinking history? A lot of musicians aren't that deep so it is good that like a painter their work is in the eye of the beholder. It's the musician's job to expose their pain and glory to the world.

Pepper and yes that is my name Oh ps scarlet scarlet and she's in my bed He is talking about pulling up the blood into the syringe, then pushing the plunger etc see above.

Remember, you normally pull a trigger not push it. The only time I have heard someone say push the trigger is when they are talking about shooting up. The otherside is where the drugs and booze take him after he has done them. I guess that is where I am going tomorrow to start to celebrate Labor Day.

I believe the song is about someone who is gay. The slut thing is about taking it up the arse, the otherside. This does mean that Anthony is gay, he is songing about someone else. How Long song meanings.
