This is my correct interpretation of H.

Enjoy.
H.
What's coming through is alive.
What's holding up is a mirror.
[I] Something is coming through which is alive and it seems to be holding a reflective surface, more commonly referred to as a mirror.

But what's singing songs is a snake
Looking to turn this piss to wine.

[I] Obviously a snake, maybe a pet of Maynards maybe he is just looking after it while his friend treks the rockys, is singing songs to him. Which songs I cannot confirm but if I hazard a guess I’d say “shake rattle and roll”. Also the snake seems to want to turn Maynards urine into a palatable alcoholic beverage which judging by his tone upsets him. Fuck that, if I had a snake that could turn my liquid waste into alcohol I’d be cheering. Not out loud of course, I wouldn’t want George to find out about my magical snake.

They're both totally void of hate,
But killing me just the same.

[I] Whatever originally came through alive holding the mirror and the snake seem to be happy but Maynard’s drama queen paranoia make him think that they have ill-wishes towards him.

The snake behind me hisses
What my damage could have been.
My blood before me begs me
Open up my heart again.

[I] Deluded, Maynard hears the snake threaten him so he cuts himself. The blood begins to poor out making Maynard more empathetic or “Opening his heart”.

And I feel this coming over like a storm again.
Considerately.

[I] He feels this coming over like a storm again. But in a polite way.

Venomous voice, tempts me,
Drains me, bleeds me,
Leaves me cracked and empty.
Drags me down like some sweet gravity.

[I] Me, me, me. That’s what it’s all about, isn’t it Maynard?

The snake behind me hisses
What my damage could have been.
My blood before me begs me
Open up my heart again.

[I] Once again deluded, Maynard hears the snake threaten him so he cuts himself. The blood begins to poor out making Maynard more empathetic or “Opening his heart”.

And I feel this coming over like a storm again.

[I] This time Maynard feels the storm but not as politely.

I am too connected to you to
Slip away, to fade away.
Days away I still feel you
Touching me, changing me,
And considerately killing me.

[I] Obviously the owner of the snake came back and demanded Maynard to leave him and the snake in peace. But being without the snake gave Maynard withdrawrels. Politely.

Without the skin,
Beneath the storm,
Under these tears
The walls came down.

[I] Maynard in a cutting fit sat in the poring rain and cried about the loss of the snake.

And the snake is drowned and
As I look in his eyes,
My fear begins to fade
Recalling all of those times.

[I] In a jealous rage Maynard broke into his friends place and drowned the snake. Now the snake is dead Maynards fear of the snake being with someone else fades and he reminisces about all the fun times spent with the snake, such as playing Scrabble and listening to Chet Atkins.

I could have cried then.
I should have cried then.

[I] As calm engulfs Maynard, he remembers the last few weeks, the good and bad times. He realizes he should have cried. Then.

And as the walls come down and
As I look in your eyes
My fear begins to fade
Recalling all of the times

[I] Never one to get over things quickly, a few months later Maynard is still reminiscing about all the fun times spent with the snake, such as playing Scrabble and listening to Chet Atkins.

I have died
and will die.
It's all right.
I don't mind.

[I] Maynard apparently has died and will die. But don’t worry, it’s all right, he does not mind.

I am too connected to you to
Slip away, to fade away.
Days away I still feel you
Touching me, changing me,
And considerately killing me.

[I] I still have no idea what this means.

However, it wasn't meant to be humorous, and I'm really sorry that my opinion just isn't good enough :(

Giving birth to a stone? If that's outside these forums, unfortunately I'm still on the 30 day confinement to the Tool related discussions. I guess that's the rule for anyone recently registered, according to other members I've asked.

maybe its about uniting the macrocosm with the microcosm (nuit with hadit)

AKA golden dawn

and the name of the song has to do with the sound of the AE of AENEMA

which is the sound of the soul

the snake is satan rising in kundalini

to unite man with universe

the dying part is the dying of the self to discover the true self
