ZoroarkWarrior It's very metaphorical indeed. For instance, Serj sings "pull the tapeworm out of your ass" after talking about a "parasite" that halts his growth and won't let him be free, telling him what to do and where to go. Coupled with the title "Needles", it becomes a strong case that this is a song about drug addiction and how you should quit it.

it does
It enhances the poetry
