While listening to Pushit yesterday, I started thinking in Tool lyrics again. This string wafted out of an experience of a recent Tool show…


Is he pushing it?

Was he pushed and shoved into this tour?

Put somewhere he doesn’t want to be?

Seeing someplace he doesn’t want to see?

Is he ready to choke this old, worn out baby?

Trade it in for a little piece of mind?

Is he staring down the gap that will separate Tool?


His movement is minimized

The show faded like a sigh

It’s like his fucking throat is torn away


Some are begging him to stay

He’s managed to push some away

But who are we to judge and strike him down

He is but our own reflection

We still love him and will pushit on him


Don’t be terrified of what may come

It will end some other day.



...Just push the envelope

And welcome any change, my friend.

whats the confusion? i think he described his interpretation pretty clear. i liked it, and see the correlation between the song and maynards unexcusably weak performance during this last tour. the rest of the band put on a great show, maynard took it all as one big fucking joke. his performance was borderline horrible. go sip some wine and release another line of cute dog sweaters you fucking yuppy.
