    Lyrics
    Someone sang your name today
    And a stranger saw me crumble
    Hauled my broken heart and shell away
    Begging bury me beside you
    The Devil popped around today.
    Selling promises and potions
    that could Take our memory away
    Help forget I'd ever met you.
    Tell me
    Can you please
    Kindly Take away the misery
    Give me
    A Bakers dozen please
    Wrap me up to go away
    Don't want to
    I need to
    Forget you
    Don't want to
    But I need to let you go.
    Devil bent my ear today
    'bout his magical elixirs
    That would make the sorrow go away.
    Help me forget I'd ever met you.
    Give me
    A Bakers dozen please
    Wrap me up to go away
    Don't want to
    I need to
    Forget you
    Don't want to
    But I need to let you go.

    This song tells a haunting story, of love, loss, addiction, trauma, and acceptance. Maynard is an absolute genius, one of the best out there.

    Toxic relationships are very similar to drug addiction. By the time you realise it's ruining you, it's already too late, and you try to pull yourself away but you can't. It only ends up getting worse and worse. And then suddenly one day, something from within shouts "I need to let you go" and you try once again and this time you actually do it. Best feeling ever, that one!

      @@tamrastiffler3285 Amen. Because just like drugs, certain types of toxic relationships can kill you, or at least kill the person you once were.
      And plenty of people are unable to overcome either or both before it's too late and they've either wasted and destroyed, or ended their lives.

    A lot of people say it is not about drugs, but more relationships.... I like to interpret this song about drugs..... Just the other day I celebrated 1 year of sobriety and this song was my quitting song ,,, whenever I felt like I would relapse... I would stick this song and repeat and It would help....thank you maynard for helping me sort my life out :)

    • @clkwrkorng2001
      @clkwrkorng2001 9 років тому +22

      👍 Keep up the good work with your sobriety by the way... I relate this song to losing a loved one (be it through a break up or death) and needing something to kill or dull the pain of losing that person and turning to dope. Ultimately, coming to the realization that you're completely dependent on dope and don't use to get high any more but use to feel "normal" because you've grown a wicked tolerance to the drug. Now, you would sell your soul to the devil to make it all go away. How easy would it be if we could just go to your medicine cabinet and drink a magical elixir to kill the pain and kill the ball and chain of drug addiction or just addition in general.

    • @bottwaandcalover
      @bottwaandcalover 9 років тому +9

      Thank yourself for sorting your life out. You would probably have latched onto anything that pulled you away from that crap. The motivation to fight back is in you, but if it can be personified, materialized.. its more powerful.

    • @KachinggaKisses
      @KachinggaKisses 9 років тому +15

      That's the best thing about Maynard's music. He leaves it open for interpretation so anyone can take what they want from it and it can fit and help everyone and their situation. One person can get one thing from it, and another something totally different.
      I applaud you for your strength to stay sober. Keep it up. (:

      Anthrax-Princess exactly. if he came out and said "this song is about THIS!!!!" he wouldn't be what he is. i find tool's song "H." very open to interpretation as well even though its fairly accepted that its about heroine. obviously due to the name of the song, but could also stand for "Her"
      well obviously pretty much every song of his is open to interpretation, but H. and this song seem to have a lot of similarities... just my thoughts.

This song is magical and healing if you just close your mind and take it in. Once again Thank You Maynard and Crew. Peace, Love, and Light my brothers and sisters! Live! Love!

      I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my husband to an overdose just a month and a half ago. This song is actually on the playlist I made to play at his funeral (I think the playlist is public if anyone wants to give it a listen).
      Waiting for the day that I don't have to worry that a stranger will see me crumble. I know it'll come eventually, but the pain is still so fresh.
      Anyway, sorry to hijack. Best wishes to you and your family (don't know if you two had any children or anything).

    I hear the Cure influence in this song. But anything Maynard does , I am fan. And drug addiction and alcoholism was my life for 22 years. ANd I lived and breathed the animation in my reality. My addiction lead me to many scary and unbelievable memories to harness. But through recovery, they are now apart of my story. And seeing this vid, is a great reminder of why I never want to return to addiction.

    To me, this song is about love and/or drugs... Either are interchangeable.
    For me personally, it was love. That kind of relationship that is perfect, yet impossible... Doomed, star-crossed, whatever you want to call it.
    The love that you want but can't have... The love that hurts when you think about it but even after years still tugs on your heart.
    Shit that you wouldn't want to trade for anything bc it felt amazing and was perfect but at the same time, you wish you had never felt bc it hurts so much to not be with that person.
    Same goes with drugs... they make you feel amazing til they are gone or you fuck up your whole life...
    You love those times you were high but wish you could forget that feeling since you are ALWAYS missing it....

    I can't stop watching this video. The song is incredible already on it's own, but the art, my God, the art is just amazing. It's definitely very Keenan-esque, and I'm surprised that it wasn't his own art direction that created it. It definitely captures the feel and the vibe of the song perfectly. And those little jumping/dancing clouds, man those little guys just rock out lol. Ian, whoever you are, if you're reading this, please keep doing what you do :)

    Maynard is a true poet if you truly listen , not hear, listen. This song in particular hits the center of my soul. Needing to let something go yet it seems impossible, it can tear someone inside out. Wish more people would listen to Maynard, he teaches us. Just the very sound of his voice puts me at ease.

  • @Glaedrein
    @Glaedrein 6 років тому +3

    This song has such a bittersweet story attached to it. Starting out, he is talking about something that takes the pain of loss away. Then slowly you realize that it isn't the person he's trying to get over, but what took away the pain in the first place. MJK does it again. He always has lyrics that you really have to pay attention to to understand the meaning behind it all.

That pain that feeling of impending doom that feeling something bad is about to happen. And it helps but only for a little while and soon you find yourself reasoning with that voice inside that it isn't the issue with the solution but "the problem" that is driving you. Its you, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM just like your shadow... You cant escape your shadow can you? That "ugly thing" inside you is at the end of the day PART OF YOU. Its not objective its fact and escaping yourself for most is the most satisfying feeling they will ever feel....escape.... Escape....escape. Or..... Except. Something even harder to do in the end.

[Not including pain pill addicts who were misled and misinformed by their doctors. But even they eventually became aware and were aware of the dangers of switching to heroin, for those in that circumstance].
      Now, did they think/know how quickly and horribly their addiction would spiral and often destroy or end their life? Mostly no, but that's not due to misinformation.
