The Tool Page: Opinion - View Single Post

If this is the case, then the god trying to break into Maynards conciousness certainly isn't a benevolent one. The picture painted by the speaker is not one of patience and understanding, it is one of urgency, demand, and lust. Look at all of the forcefull energy. Not forcefull as in determined, forcefull as in a bending of will. The speaker is doing nothing short of attacking the recipient's (of the words) resolve. This being the case, I highly doubt Maynard, if he is the listener, would give in to such demands. If one can find a positive connotation to the feelings of a rapist (which is undoubtedly the mindset of the speaker, not taking no for an answer) then I can see why one would give in and "take it all" from the speaker. If one sees the negative, attacking, obsessive feelings of the speaker, however they will fight the speaker's will to the end.

This song is about fools who open up for pressure.

Any speaker with a positive intent would never act so forcefully.

Adding Tool quotes into every sentence applicable only discredits opinions and theories as more of a stretch, be careful.
