Danny Carey has one of the most epic percussion rhythms throughout that song. I often lose the count in that song and have to catch up.

The lyrics are a pretty damning indictment of the tendency for people to say what they think others want to hear to get what they want. But when it comes down to it a lot of people are not willing to put themselves in another’s place even though they often expect it of others. People are happy to take, but very rarely willing to give back in return.

Alternatively you could call it a direct indictment against certain religious leaders (such as L Ron Hubbard according to Carey in G27 of the Tool FAQ) and their expectation of those that follow them, but their complete lack of offering anything in return. Then again, Maynard has said that the interpretation of all Tool songs is up to the person listening.

A cry out? Isn’t every Maynard James Keenan song charged with such passion? :-)

Blood pressure maybe? If you are worried then so see your doctor. I kinda like you so you should think about me for once and my feelings and go see a doctor for me! Ha so there!

Hmmmm I hate to say I like that song, anything with that much emotion in it. Sounds like a cry out to me ….. =)

Amazing how things change very rapidly. Gone from being over experienced and under qualified to being in demand all of a sudden. 2 definite offers on the table, and working on a 3rd for a role I'd really like. February sucked, but March has been significantly better.

I don't care how much or little I get paid. I just want some interviews at least.

Totally screwed right now and not sure how to get out of the mess I'm in.

I know the feeling – for me though its a money thing :( I usually want too much (well I want what I get paid now – that surely isn't too much to ask is it?!?!?!?

Comment on you better runaway, you better run and hide, you better make your escape by Kiwigirl

Hey – if you ever need quit smoking help, I'm definitely willing. I smoked easily 20 plus a day for over ten years, and I'm now 13 months smoke free. I still miss it occassionally – but only occassionally. I'm so much happier (and healthier and fitter) smokefree. My advice – cold turkey completely is the only way to go. Don't have the occassional one. That just makes quitting so much harder. Take deep breaths. Pick up a new habit. I used to walk around the block when I wanted to smoke in the office. And then I started exercising. A lot. Do a lot of research online. Read. I swear it helps! And twitter me or email me if you are thinking about smoking! xxx K

Comment on Happy New Year. Help! by kinthiri

End poorly is an understatement. Things have gotten a lot more difficult than they were last week. I'm fighting to save a friendship, but I'm starting to wonder what the point is. Nothing I say makes a difference, and everything I say seems to just make it worse. I let her see my twitter stream just to try and alleviate some of the issue and its only made the possessive tendency more pronounced.

I'm starting to think letting things get sexual may have been a mistake.

You've been open and honest and she has made her decision, that is on her. HOWEVER, with that being said, in the end, even if you've been honest, when she is upset and hurt, can you really say that you will feel nothing, no guilt whatsoever? If it will affect YOU negatively it may be best to end it, even if you have been honest. Not because you've done anything wrong, but because it could end poorly.
