waiting like a stalking butler

"This song represents the unitarian viewpoint. That at one point all religions were the right one, than, they fell apart. The pieces are now corrupt, molded shadows of the once great temple. This song says if the pieces don't communicate with each other than we are doomed. At least, that is what I hear."

Wow yeah I like this evaluation, and the part where he says
about the friend with the drinking problem, and the things society puts down being tools that you could use to be more creative or successful, the paradox of that.

look at that: Genius!

There's a shadow just behind me,
shrouding every step I take,
making every promise empty,
pointing every finger at me.
