    Lyrics >>>>>>>>
    .
    You think I deserve this
    You said I was stupid
    All my thoughts are like coal
    But Russia on ice is burning a hole
    Can't stop myself drinking
    Can't stop being me
    If I call will you come and will you save me?
    I see the whole thing come down
    I burn it to the ground
    Well what the hell did you say?
    You said you hate me this way
    It's just a matter of time
    A drop in the ocean
    A significant motion
    Nothing melts in this cold
    But Russia on ice is burning a hole
    I see the whole thing come down
    I burn it to the ground
    Well what the hell did you say?
    You said you hate me this way
    It's just a matter of time

    That's probably the best song I've ever heard. I play it very rarely just to treasure it and eliminate the risk of overplaying it. The fireworks at the end are just incredible. Nothing can match the feels I get there at the end. How can something be so fucking good and at the same time not very well known.

    • @DarkQwerzar
      @DarkQwerzar 8 лет назад +51

      +SheIsntReal94 In the beginning the lyrics start with a dark thought : "You think i deserve this? You said i was stupid" and introduce us to a man that is suffering for someone (probably his girl), all with a slow intro that is perfect to the crescendo of the song, that slowly progress symmetrical to the "thoughts" that the "man" is feeling. After he sayed "all my thoughts are like coal", and that's a metaphor, because like the coal, the thoughts are propellant for the flame of Pain in this case, the pain that he is suffering, and this pain is only "removed" by drinking alchol, and we know that by "But Russia on ice is burning a hole"the most metaphorical phrase in the song, infact the meaning is deep and ermetic: The "russia on ice" is a metaphor for Vodka - Alchol, that is burning the Throath ("a hole"), so he is drunking because he doesn't want to think. This phrase will be repeated all the times at the end of a strophe, and the meaning is that the only solution for solve the problems that he had is drinking and drinking, and this is clearly explained at the beggining of the next strophe "Can't stop myself drinking". After that he sayed "can't stop being me, if i call will you come and will you save me?", and this is explained the problem that he had with her girl, she doesn't like him anymore for what he became, and he is thinking that she even would not help him if he call for help. Then the music kick and start to have a significant crescendo, with the dark chorus "I see the whole thing come down, i burn it to the ground, well what the hell did you say?You said you hate me this wait, it's just a matter of time", the crescendo is symmetrical to the wrath that start to grows in he, when he is drunk at the ground, angry for the bad words that he received. But after that the music calms down again, because the sadness keep his thoughts, and the next strophe is the real deep end:"A drop in the ocean, a significant motion, nothing melts in this cold, but Russia on ice is burning a hole". That for me had 2 meanings, the first, that the "drop in the ocean" represent how a little thing can really hurt a man inside ( a single drop cause a significant motion in the sea), and that he is so "cold" inside now that he can't feel anything (nothing melts in this cold) and he turn back again at drinking alchol (russia on ice...). The second meaning is much darker and depressing, infact, the "drop in the ocean" could be a metaphor for his body (the drop) that fall in the ocean...he is commiting suicide in the water, and that's the real significant motion, the last motion of his body, and in the cold of the water any "burning thoughts" that melt his soul will be ended, and again the last reference to his alchol addiction that caused his death. In any case, both will end with his death for me "it's just a matter of time" and i can speculate that by the change of the music after that phrase. Infact the heavy riff for me rapresent his last thoughts of anger in the cold water or at the ground drunk, because the alchol make his effect and he is covered in rage, but after all that heavy and dark armony the music calm down suddendly, and a bell start to ring...like a bell of death, like the bell that plays at a funeral...he is dying, and finally all the bad thoughts are vanishing with the silence and peace of the death...
      That's my interpretation...was really long to write,hope this will help someone to understand more this masterpiece, and sorry for my bad english...hope this is legible!

    “Can’t stop myself drinking

    Hits hard. I’ll get better eventually. Psychedelics are my saving grace. So is music. Especially, Steven Wilson. I love what he’s done for the world, and I’m grateful for the inspiration he’s sparked for myself as well as others to live for their art.

    Well what the hell did you say?
    You said you hate me this way

    A significant motion
