Seriously, I believe most of their songs are about this very struggle of his. How could he not write about it? Brokenskull48 on August 23, And we know homeboy was an addict, so it makes sense floydandmetal on June 01, Maybe the veins in one arm collapsed and he had to use the other? Love it and it was all i need right now dumbaftointerp on June 15, My Interpretation this is a great song , and the fact the people can interpret it different ways showz its a real work of poetic art..
The term is generally pejorative and most often used as an insult, offensive term. Might as well interpret a peppers song from my inexperieced view of hard drugs. Song Meaning The song is about drug use plain and simple.
Push the trigger and pull the thread is shooting up. Its the terms anyone who has shot up would know. Push the trigger is pushing the plunger.
Pulling the thread is pulling the tourniquet to get the rush. Doesn't anyone who reads song lyrics have a drug history? Pour my life into a paper cup the ashtrays full and I'm spilling my guts Pour my life into a cup is someone loaded on alcohol talking about his past. Obviously, for a long time or the ashtray wouldn't be full and he is talking about bad things he's done or he wouldn't be spilling his guts. Doesn't anyone who reads song lyrics have a drinking history?
A lot of musicians aren't that deep so it is good that like a painter their work is in the eye of the beholder. It's the musician's job to expose their pain and glory to the world. Pepper and yes that is my name Oh ps scarlet scarlet and she's in my bed He is talking about pulling up the blood into the syringe, then pushing the plunger etc see above. Remember, you normally pull a trigger not push it. The only time I have heard someone say push the trigger is when they are talking about shooting up.
The otherside is where the drugs and booze take him after he has done them. I guess that is where I am going tomorrow to start to celebrate Labor Day. I believe the song is about someone who is gay. The slut thing is about taking it up the arse, the otherside. This does mean that Anthony is gay, he is songing about someone else.
Someone else on this site wrote about Anthony kissing someone passionately on one of the R. P videos, i have a friend who does things like this he is not gay he likes to spinn people out, get people talking shit about shit.
You know what i'm saying. My Interpretation I believe the term "other side" in this song has a double meaning. The song is primarily about drugs and the band members' particularly Kiedis struggles with addiction, but it could also be the "afterlife", a metaphor for death slit my throat its all I ever had , and I think it focuses on the relation between the two the line "once you go you can never go back" would then be appropriate for both getting high and death.
The music video shows a young man going through a series of trials: the first and most literal is being taken to a hospital and getting relief, after which he is attacked by a monster in a cave, but is given a ladder and climbs out.
Once he is "safe", however, his shadow inner demons? After being disarmed by the shadow, he flies away, only to be attacked by a crow, who pushes him off a cliff where he appears to die.
Notice how in every scenario, the protagonist does not kill or vanquish his attacker, but instead flees and runs away. These attackers are the addiction, and the message is that they cannot be killed I yell and tell it that its not a friend I tear it down I tear it down and then its born again. Ultimately, the only definitive escape from an addiction you could possibly have is death, which is what the protagonist appears to suffer in the end, either by overdose Hillel Slovak or by suicide, depending on your interpretation.
However, there is some degree of hope that I think is often overlooked; the man allegedly dies in the exact same position that the music video starts off in, where he suddenly opens his eyes before being taken to a hospital. Not only does this show that addiction can be a cycle of sober and relapse, but also gives the idea that it is possible to break out completely, as Kiedis appears to have done since , ironically right in the realm the album Californication and this song was released.
