Lyrics
I see it coming
The speaker foresees an event or situation.
It's loud and clear
The impending situation is easily noticeable and evident.
Rip off the bandage
A metaphorical call to confront a painful past or issue.
The bloody scar is still there
The reminder of a deeply entrenched and painful memory or experience.
I see it coming
Reiteration of anticipating something about to happen.
It's loud and clear
Reemphasis on the clarity and obviousness of the forthcoming event.
Rip off the bandage
Encouragement to address and face a lingering hurt.
The bloody scar is still there
A reminder that the deeply painful mark still remains.
Infection never went away
Suggesting an unresolved issue that continues to affect.
No way
An assertion that there's no chance for resolution.
popping pills just helped delay
Using medication to temporarily avoid dealing with the issue.
Antibiotics, they didn't do a damn thing
Expressing frustration with the ineffectiveness of treatment.
Now it's pus-sy and gross and ready to burst
Describing the worsening condition, perhaps metaphorically, as it becomes more repulsive.
OH!
An exclamation, possibly denoting disgust or shock.
Welcome to the America that time forgot
A portrayal of a forgotten part of the nation, laden with negative emotions.
Where the fear and anger boils right up to the top
Where collective anxiety and rage are reaching their peak.
It was right below but you couldn't see
A description of something present but unnoticed until now.
Now we're going back in time to frickin' 1963
Comparing the current state to a past era, indicating regression.
I see it coming
Reiteration of anticipating something about to happen.
It's loud and clear
Reemphasis on the clarity and obviousness of the forthcoming event.
Rip off the bandage
Encouragement to address and face a lingering hurt.
The bloody scar is still there
A reminder that the deeply painful mark still remains.
