Anybody have some lyric meanings for any Tool songs?

I am doing a language study in english and thought they would be a fantastic one to do as they have so many different meanings and hidden stuff on their albums.

Anybody have some lyric meanings for any Tool songs?
Check out http://toolshed.down.net The FAQ has been updated up to Lateralus and has many interesting questions and answers about manye of the song meanings.


Also they have a message/opinion board and if you register there I'm sure you'd be able to find lots of different opinions on all the songs, and they also have a section devoted completely to the new album 10,000 Days.





There's also www.songmeanings.net but most people on there are morons.
Reply:"Bottom"





"My compassion is broken now.


My will is eroded,


and my desire stolen and it makes me feel ugly.


I'm on my knees and burning.


My piss and moans are the fuel that set my head on fire.


So smell my soul burning.


I'm broken, looking up to see the enemy.


I have swallowed the poison you feed me ...


but I survive on it ,


and it leaves me guilt fed, hatred fed, weakness fed..


and I feel ugly, and dead inside.





**** adds up at the bottom.





You've left me no choice but to go inside and rebuild


what's broken.


Too much , too far , too late to lie down now.


I must arm myself to fight you


by making weapons out of my imperfections.


It's all I have left.


There's no other choice.


I'm shameless, nameless, nothing, and noone now.


But my soul must be iron for my fear is naked.


I'm naked and fearless.


But I'm dead inside.


You see.. **** adds up, now I'm dead inside.


Hatred, weakness, and guilt keep me alive


at the bottom."








Talks of love and loss, and the emptiness in side afterwards, very sad very meaningfull on many levels.
