    Lyrics:
    It took so long to remember just what happened
    I was so young and vestal then
    You know it hurt me
    But I'm breathing so I guess I'm still alive
    Even if signs seem to tell me otherwise
    I've got my hands bound
    My head down, my eyes closed
    And my throat's wide open
    Do unto others what has been done to me
    Do unto others what has been done to you
    I'm treading water
    I need to sleep a while
    My lamb and martyr, you look so precious
    Won't you, won't you come a bit closer
    Close enough so I can smell you
    I need you to feel this
    I can't stand to burn too long
    Release in sodomy
    For one sweet moment I am whole
    Do unto you now
    What has been done to me
    Do unto you now
    What has been done
    You're breathing so I guess you're still alive
    Even if signs seem to tell me otherwise
    Won't you, won't you come on a bit closer
    Close enough so I can smell you
    I need you to feel this
    I need this to make me whole
    Release in sodomy
    Have you witnessed
    Blood and flesh can't be trusted?
    Have you witnessed
    Blood and flesh can't be trusted?
    And only this one holy medium brings me peace of mind
    Got your hands bound, your head down
    And your eyes closed
    You look so precious now
    I have found some kind of temporary sanity in this
    Shit, blood and cum on my hands
    I've come 'round full circle
    My lamb and martyr, this will be over soon
    You look so precious
    You look so precious
    You look so precious
    You look so precious
    You look so precious now
    You look so precious

      Shalom
      1 Thessalonians 6:16-18 Rejoice evermore.Pray without ceasing.In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you./Inspiration+Is there any other place in your life that you feel that you really "rejoice" other than at Church? Do you take time out of your day to explicitly pray to God, or is it constantly happening in the way you talk and act? Are you grateful for everything or are you sometimes bitter when things don’t go as you hoped? Think carefully about this passage, because if you implement the changes that these verses command, your entire life view will be positively altered. Think about it and you will discover that you already know it is true. /Prayer+ All the glory be to God! I wish to have no evil in my thoughts, precious Lord Jesus, and hope that every moment of my life is spent rejoicing in Your name. I know that I am not perfect; no, I am far from it. Forgive me for neglecting the virtues bestowed on me by You, and help me to pray constantly in the subconscious of my mind. If I do this, I know that every moment of everyday will be filled with thanksgiving, as I feel with this prayer. Amen.

      I moreso see them as describing an endless cycle of violence: the abuser does something horrible to their victim, their victim is mentally broken and now the only way they feel whole and alive again is by doing the same thing to someone else, thus becoming the new abuser. I could also see it as a criticism of the judicial system, prisons specifically, as nine times out of ten, when a bad person goes to prison, when they come out, they're just so much worse.

    It took so long to remember just what happened
    I was so young and vestal then you know it hurt me
    But I'm breathing so I guess I'm still alive
    Even if signs seem to tell me otherwise
    I've got my hands bound
    And my head down,
    And my eyes closed
    My throat's wide open
    I do unto others what has been done to me
    Do unto others what has been done to you
    I'm treading water
    I need to sleep a while
    My lamb and martyr,
    You look so precious
    Won't you-won't you come on a bit closer
    Close enough so I can smell you
    I need you to feel this
    I can't stand to burn too long
    Released in sodomy
    For one sweet moment I am whole
    I do unto you now what has been done to me
    Do unto you now what has been done to
    You're breathing so I guess you're still alive
    Even if signs seem to tell me otherwise
    Won't you-won't you come on a bit closer
    Close enough so I can smell you
    I need you to feel this
    I need this to make me whole
    Released in sodomy
    Have you witnessed that blood and flesh can't be trusted
    Have you witnessed that blood and flesh can't be trusted
    And only this one holy medium brings me peace of mind
    Got your hands bound,
    And your head down
    And your eyes closed
    You look so precious now
    I have found some kind of temporary sanity in this
    Shit blood and cum on my hands
    I've come round full circle
    My lamb and martyr,
    This will be over soon
    You look so precious [6x]

  • @AliceCavalera
    @AliceCavalera 3 роки тому +906

    I was sexually abused last year by a "friend", the first days after what happened were hell for me, I had to go to the police station almost every day, I will never forget the painful injections they gave me in the hospital and that made me cry, the fear of eating because the pills I was taking were very strong for me, for 7 months the relationship with my mother was based on lies because I did not want to worry her, the scar on my left wrist is still visible reminding me that if I'm still alive it's because I shouldn't die that way.
    When I heard this song I obviously remembered everything that happened that night, however, something unusual was that in a way it did not affect me in a bad way, in fact, quite the contrary.
    I mean: I interpret the song as the victim is now the executioner, making his/her aggressor pay for all the damage that s/he has done to him/her.
    Whether through justice or my own hand, I will make that motherfucker who tried to ruin my life "look so precious now."
    Thank you Tool for making me feel braver than ever and helping me draw strength when I thought I didn't have it💕

    I remember my Mom took me to get a tape. Yes. Cassette tape. I'm 44. I picked Undertow. I heard Opiate before and really liked it so I was psyched to hear Undertow. Totally blew me away. I heard Prison Sex for the first time on the way back from the record store. My mom heard the bridge "I have found some kind of temporary insanity in this" " Shit, blood and cum on my hands". She looked over at me and said "what is this?". I said a new band called TOOL. She was like "I don't know if I want you listening to this". I said "Mom, they're singing about a dude getting raped in prison." Real shit that actually happens. Not fairy tale shit about falling in love." Plus I couldn't get over how great they sounded lyrically & musically. My mom said she liked the singer. I said "yea hes really good. I hope they make more music. They did and still are making music that keeps my mind stimulated while relating to all of the lyrics in some way. Can't really say that for any other current band. I tried to listen to newer music the last few years but I just can't get into it. But I will always listen to TOOL, go to their shows and be excited for anything they put out.

      It’s about the cycle of abuse, silly. Not literal prison sex.

    If I listed the albums I've listened to so much in my life you'd think I'd be burnt out on it but I'm exactly the opposite. Tool/Undertow is most definitely on that list. It's just fucking awesome 🤘🤘🤘

    I haven't seen the lyrics to this song before and its quite disturbing.... title pretty much is what the song is about

      It's directly about the sexual abuse Maynard experienced when he was a kid.

      Not misleading at all....the word Prison in this sense means being stuck in a helpless situation.

      Aight everybody calm down. Lad's just trying to quote Aenima is all. Just messed up the lyrics a bit. Instead it's "Fuck retro anything
      , Fuck your tattoos, Fuck all you junkies and, Fuck your short memory". He's got the spirit of it tho.
