I always think of myself when listening to PUSHIT. I don't know why. I like how Tool wants the fans to interperit the song for themselves. I have a personal Interperetation.
I think of THE GAP as the future world, namely America.
and BEGGING ME TO STAY is when Americans talk so highly of their country and act as if all other counrties are hardcore fascistic monarchies.
TAKE CARE NOT TO MAKE ME ENTER, CAUSE IF I DO WE BOTH MAY DISAPPEAR
so like, the dissappearing thing talks of how i need to stay calm and not let the fascistic assmericans get to me or i'll lose my sanity and pull a coulombine on everyone.

I WILL CHOKE UNTILL I SWALLOW, CHOKE THIS INFANT HERE BEFORE ME
is how i'll oppose fascism and catholicism to my end.

WHO ARE YOU BUT MY REFLECTION, WHO AM I TO JUDGE OR STRIKE YOU DOWN?
they talk of how i'm american too and how i should feel fourtunate

BUT YOU'RE PUSHING AND SHOVING ME
self- explanitory


Rest your trigger on my finger,
Bang my head upon the fault line

I've been told that people like me start wars and everyone says how negative i sound

YOU STILL LOVE ME
their intentions are good in their mind but they are still hurting me nonetheless

"And Im slipping back into the gap again
I feel alive when you touch me...
I feel alive when you hold me...
...down

Slipping back into you"



it's hard not to get angry at them in fact its impossible.
but i feel good proving them wrong and denouncing their beliefs it makes me feel righteous

"I am somewhere I dont wanna be, yeah
Put me somewhere I dont wanna be
Push me somewhere I dont wanna be
Seeing someplace I don't wanna see
Never wanna see that place again..."

yeah.....

"Saw that gap again today
While you were begging me to stay
Managed to push myself away,
And you as well, my dear"

this is where it starts to really get me i am looking back at a previous plan of mine, to martyr myself so people will think more, like pushing them away from their constant hypocracy

"If, when I say I may fade like a sigh if I stay,
You minimize my movement anyway,
I must persuade you another way

Pushing and Shoving and
Pushing and Shoving and
Pushing me

yeah again...

There's no love in fear."

the catholics are always trying to scare people into becoming like them

"Staring down the hole again.
Hands are on my back again.
Survival is my only friend.
Terrified of what may come.

Remember I will always love you,
As I claw your fucking throat away.
It will end no other way."

this is pretty self-explanitory i do love mankind and i don't hate anyone other than mussolini and stalin. but it must end.

Pushit in my opinion takes the runner up seat to Third Eye.
