i know this has been talked about before on the fourms but i love the idea of it. this whole song is the come down to a trip, starting with the intro which is live a brain overload of thoughts, much similar to a peak of psychedelic trip. then it gets to the point that he is sobering up, forgetting what happened, and starts tweaking out (explains all the screaming at the end)... he forgot his pen, forgot to write down what happened, and he is pissed... they made him out to be a hero, and now its all gone......

I don't relate this song to any kind of life experiance that I have had, but I still like the general feeling I have when I hear it. It's a big departure from the stuff I normally hear and I appreciate that. I still can't desipher much of the lyrics, but it does have a trippy feel.
