Schism (tool)
I know the pieces fit cuz I watched them fall away
mildewed and smoldering, fundamental differing,
pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion
disintegrating as it goes testing our communication
the light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so
we cannot see to reach an end crippling our communication.

I know the pieces fit cuz I watched them tumble down
no fault, none to blame it doesn't mean I don't desire to
point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over.
To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication.

The poetry that comes from the squaring off between,
And the circling is worth it.
Finding beauty in the dissonance.

There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall away.
Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting
I've done the the math enough to know the dangers of a second guessing
Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication

cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion

between supposed lovers
between supposed brothers.

And I know the pieces fit.

Most definitely my favorite Tool song. I got goosebumps as I saw it on your journal. I relived the time I saw them in concert a couple of years ago. Great show. I went with a couple of friends. One would eventually become my fiancee (which she is no longer.) I sat there drunk off of one beer watching her move to the music. Seeing Maynard put all of his passion into it was great as well. Well I'm off to listen to it now. Later.

I am not at the point in my life when I can choke down another handful of criticisim. I can only take responsibility for being stupid enough not to hold my ground in my marriage.
You have a point in everything you said, but the force and anger that came as a side dish blinded my reasoning.
