First I would like build the foundation for my statment as well as issue a disclaimer.
What I'm about to outline is something that makes sense to me for what I know and is not to repsesnt what I feel is the finite meaning. It just so happens that my interpretation fits into what I'm about to mention.
Alchemy.
We've heard reference to this in the past, and we know what it is. However, I would like to add this interesting theory. Alchemy is the watching and study of chemical reactions so that the observer may learn something about how to change themselves.
It has also been presented to me that the Feminine is superior to the Masculine in the way that they are predisposed to communication with God. Now that I've mentioned the idea of God, please try to refrain from assuming that I'm speaking of the common misconception championed by the Christian/Judea community.
Female are natural receptors where males are not. It's in the formula of our procreation. It is thought that this receptive nature extends all the way down to the soul and this is how women are naturaly able to communicate with God. it is said that when a man and woman have sex it allows them to become a whole being and when this being is balance or in love; they will recieve freely from the divine - but only during this act of sex. This is also why early REALLY early civilizations championed prostitution, it was a way for men to commune with God.
Alchemists who strive to complete the 'great work' are actualy trying to transmutate their masculine souls into a feminine soul so that they may receive freely without the aid of sexual intercourse.
The theory of the 'Mona Lisa' is that Da Vinci had achived his great work and the woman in the picture is an oil and cavase picture of his new feminie soul.
The assumption that Judith Marie is Maynards mother is widely accepted as solid ground for further interpretation. However, humor me with this idea.
Judith Marie is the name of Maynards feminine soul. Here is something that helps point to that.

-------The reversal of initials.
MJ
The reversal to me signifies that the two are opposite to one another. Male - Female. He swaped the initials of his first and middle name and gave each one a fem title and leaving the last name alone. Signifying that they are either related or in my thought...the same person.
"10,000 Days in the fire is long enough, you're going home" This line is refereing to the tempering of the reaction and the purification it brings. Once this side was created it needed a cleansing of fire to forge it into the prefection it was to be.
I read somewhere on here that Maynard sees APC as his feminine band and tool is his masculie. This is what leads me to associate this with the theory of Alchemy being about transmutating ones soul into a vessel of reception
If he was going to do this why would he choose the name of his mother to represent his fem side?
That is simple. He respected his mother, and maybe in many ways she helped nurture him in life in ways that helped him create and embrace this part of his soul. She is what he veiws as a respectable and divine being, why not honor her in such a way. Give that title to the part of his soul that will communicate with God and further nurture the masciline side, much like his mother did.
I do support the idea that this song along with "WFM" is a tribute to his mother, but I also feel that somewhere in the background only for the people who can see and himself, Maynard is also praising his feminine side.
Thank you, I look forward to the feedback to come. Especially the people who just "KNOW" I'm wrong because they read this or that...you guys are funny! Just because my theory contradicts what you think, don't make me wrong.
I may be wrong, but you're not right.
