".. Tear my eyes.." not dim or damn. Tear my eyes in a great big flaming stealth banana third eye.

The third eye opening (third solution to the Schism.. the Son/Inner-Sun) is his hope - his Saturn that comes back around.

Well you could probably be right. I'm not sure of "tear".
Even with Studio monitors and equaliser it's still damn hard to decipher.

But definately not "Damn".. the reason I suggest "tear" is because he makes a "Tjiii" or "chi" sound like "cheer".. so I thought it sounded like a half "tear/cheer"

I'll give it another try. in a real music program instead of Mediaplayer ..2 sec :)

Well that didn't help much haha. Even Huled, pitched and Slowmoed maynards lyrics are still damn tuff haha.

BUT! .. I did manage to extract one definate sentence: it's "your my Home, My saturn".
Please believe me. I've Equalised it, Slowed it down, Put more Hul+pitch into it so that it wasn't "deep pitch" Slow-motion.
It's Definately saturn. and not Hope as I thought efore, but Home.
(Before I didn't analyse it with software. please believe me. it's "Saturn".. there's no way that it could be "Center" or "I just said I".. I managed to make that part super-clear)

.....
As for the "Damn, Dim, Tear, cheer"..
what I could make out is that it's 3 different ways maynard starts the words.
I now think the first is Damn. The second is Cheer. and the last is Tear.
Kinda like he's asking the sun to shine light and damn his eyes (since existence is an illusion and everything is pain, ala buddha)
Then he's asking the Sun to do the opposite - Cheering. which is still the same, since we are Cheered by damnation.
and at last he want's the sun to Tear his eyes apart in a flaming stealth banana.

"You're my peace of mind my own/home I SAID I'M just trying to hold on one more day"

Listened to it quite a bit. I used to think for sure he said "my own" but now I'm not so sure. But I'm so sure it's indeed "I said I'm..." It would be a really poor pronunciation to say saturn like that. But think about it, they're damn close, (said I'm and saturn) but I hear a phonetic "ed" sound not "at". I also hear "eye mmm" instead of "urn". The result? "I said I'm just trying to hold on."

I had to do some serious rendering of it, before I could make the Definate assumption of Saturn. It's really hard to hear. I had to use EQ and Time bending before I could make it out.

err.. but I'm just restateting what I said before lol. Any one got an "upload Link" site I could use to send it to ya? :)

Ever think when you're manipulating it (slowing it down, adjusting all kids of levels, EQing for you taste) that you're making it sound more like what it might not be?

Yes of course I've considered that. But that's not the case. There's no way the tools I use d such as EQ and time bend, can distort the actual word. The recording is mastered, so it's damn hard to alter the direct words, without going into Phasers and stuff.
It's simply slowing it down, and then adding pitch. So instead of getting a Low-key slowmo Saturn. I get a Saturn in the exact same pitch maynard sings it, only lenghtened. so it's audible.
Im not stupid dawg ;D haha
But hey. I'm only trying to be helpful. :)

I think the reason for this could be, that although we use them differntly, they're phonically related in the Ancient-languages. So they're simply synononyms.

He is cursing his dual perspective, as it is destroying a very important relationship.

Center, in this case, is a reference to what he is loosing. And it's not there.

''You're my piece of mind, my home I said i'm just trying to hold on one more day.''
No Saturn. He has lived withing this realtionship with success, in a sense, he has created a new world, a new home. Earth is a home, so is my appartment, so scale in this case is entirely irrelevant, until we get to the sun/son shit. Now a different ''success'' is tainting that. He reminds himself of what his simple wish was, in order to survive another day, hopefully returning to his desired state.
As an addict, i often require a mantra not to jump out of my window or go downtown. It's usually an image of my wife.

Not Sun, but Son, which is like a sun in his world, as Devo is all that grounds him in his new reality, one where he is no longer succeptible to Genetic Predispositions (cough, H, cough) and ready to build anew, after all that ''walls come down'' stuff.
He breathes in union, so as one, no longer tormented or broken or split by addiction, he sews his wild oats, uses the straw to rethatch his cottage, watches it bend-- so to speak.


Stop saying Saturn.

Fucking boo.

Return to one = Return of saturn eating his children.

Ever considered this:
Since we're about to die, and when we're dead we return to one. What difference did it ever make that we existed in the first place.
If there is only one, then.. we might as well be gone.

I think this song is about the hope of a third option.
The first being the infinity meaningless/infinite chaos. the second being the ego trapped duality.
But if we're simply born, only to become one again. Then we might as well have never been created. since we're only plaything-satellites.

I think maynards referering to the third eye, as his change of luck, the thing that will compromise the fulcrum.
The fulcrum being the Harmony between creation and perishing into nothing.

I think he's saying: If there isn't a third path compromising this fulcrum:
Then why the hell did we have to exist at all, when we're only born to realise that we're only illusion.

Nope.

Damn my eyes IF they should compromise a fulcrum, (if) want and need divide me then i might as well be gooooooone.

The fulcrum, should it be compromised, would be a bad thing. I don't think he's after a change to bad luck, since the song seems like a man digging his way out of a hole, after digging into one.

Please, get out of the new age books and just feel the song. Your opinions will change.

The definition of Tool can not be derived, or cut and pasted, from Flower of Life books, there is a very large ''soul'' element to all of their masterpieces.

Feeeeeeeeeeel.

a) Fleet Center. Center For Addictions and Mental Health.

b) Centre ice. Centrifuge. -centric.


a) Center = location, usually something architectural

b) Centre = the middle of something.

wouldn't death be zero? in terms of mentality and the space we occupy? All the cells in your heart would just be cells, no longer a single mechanism serving as two pumps. They would all live and die as single cells, but the mind, the consciousness, wouldn't it be gone? back to zero?

the difference is in your effects, isn't it?
Once you are here, the world is never the same.

Oh yeah your right haha. But I dont care about the effect, since my Intention is to Observe it.
Now I can't do that after Im gone. haha. So there.

Besides our minds/personalities or what we consider ourselves/souls, are really just tools. We aren't even passengers, we're simply conscious navigation systems.
The real Deal lies in the so called "immortal" Germline cells.
Once they've been tranfered to another host, our consciousness is ready to be discarded.

Sorry if I get to Contra at ya Jevons. I like your words dude. There centainly is truth to the matter of our effecting of space.
Besides the symbol of every possibility is eternal. so fuck it. haha

It can't be Center since there's a "Sat" sound, like said. not Zen sound.
It can't be "I just said I" since there's a "urr" sound, like Cent-urrr.

So it's Sat-urn. I'm not saying my interpretations are right. But the sound is.

If you have studio equipment, do you think you could isolate, or amplify the vocals, i would really appreciate it.
There was an incident at my old film school, i am frowned upon. So i'm making my own studio... slowly. I have no way right now to do any of this.
I'm not saying you're wrong, and since the Saturn lyric could work, i can't make fun of you either.
But, still, the centre image works with the son/sun concept, providing more powerful in my opinion.
And the past tense ''i said i'm just....'' bit, which is what i hear there, works too.

So you go isolate and save us from ourselves please.
