i know the pieces fit 'cause i watched them fall away
mildewed and smoldering, fundamental differing pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion disintegrating as it goes testing our communication the light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so we cannot see to reach an end crippling our communication i know the pieces fit 'cause i watched them tumble down no fault, none to blame it doesn't mean i don't desire to point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over to bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication the poetry that comes from the squaring off between, and the circling is worth it finding beauty in the dissonance there was a time that the pieces fit, but i watched them fall away mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting i've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion between supposed lovers |

opinion 01: oh no! that son of a bitch trent reznor broke some of it! but! maynard knows the pieces fit!
opinion 02: i swear, he must be talking about something dealing with the bible! opinion 03: its meaning is obvious in its lyrics. this is the only intelligent negative song about lovers. much of the album, as said by tool, has to deal with communication. well, this song sure as hell does. |
