A Wilhelm Scream - The Pool, From the album "Ruiner".

Enjoy.

Lyrics:

The room's new carpet, and the walls' apartment hue add to the visitor feeling I'm used to.

The morning window's freezing from outside. It wakes me up.

Wasting air to the falling light.

Angel, you picked me up but the devil wants me too.

I never gave a fuck, so why should you?

I awoke in a fog with an ache, at a loss.

You were faking through relationships to rot.

This is not my home anymore.

All my accomplishments are joined with asterisks,

so in a few years they're meaningless.

Darling, I can't erase it, but could you forget my lies?

We were the slut and the self-made mess.

Please know I tried.

Smile, smile.

Smile for all.

I can't smile anymore.

I skip rocks to mock the clashing tide.

It's encroaching on our side.

The wave parade is drowning me out too.

It breaks me up.

Wish I could have done more to you.

They used your body up, leaving your guts dry.

But you never gave a fuck so why the fuck should I?

Now the face escapes me, but the shame's forever.

When I get the nerve to test the death for life renewal,

you'll find me lying at the bottom of the pool.

And when I'm face down in that water, don't pick me up.

Cause I'll be face down in that water next to you.

It will be better underwater.

Don't pick me up.

(Part 5) It's the only part I'm not sure about. But finally he says "It will be better underwater" evidencing the speaker's profound grief, stating that it would be better to be dead than to endure his grief any longer. Thank you for this opportunity dude. I'm in an AP Literature class, and analyzing poems is an important skill. This gave me good practice for the upcoming test.

(Part 4) So here is where the title gets its meaning. The speaker says that "...when [he] find[s] the nerve to test death for life renewal, [his partner will] find him lying at the bottom of the pool." This means that when he finally gets the courage to do so, he will kill himself by drowning himself in "The Pool" Finally the speaker asks his partner not to pick him out of the pool once he's dead, because "He will be face down in the water next to her" I don't know what this means exactly.

(Part 3, in case you haven't realized Part 1 is not labeled, please read that part first) sinful to kill oneself, and therefore they are believe to meet with the devil. This quote also suggests that the speaker "... never gave a fuck..." that evil tempts him to do those things, and suggests that his partner not have any such concern either. I don't wanna bore you all day, so I'll just move on to the last stanza

(Part 2) First Stanza, the speaker tells of "...falling light..." this could be seen as foreshadowing. The next stanza is only two lines and is one of the most famous lines of any AWS song. "Angel, you picked me up but the devil wants me too. I never gave a fuck, so why the fuck should you?" The speaker refers to his partner as an angel, with good connotation, but states that the devil also wants him. This is metaphorical, that he is contemplating suicide, and in the Christian religion, it is

Alright dude. First off I want you to know that I meant no disrespect earlier, and that I in fact respect you for listening to an amazing band that deserves a lot more recognition. Anyway, here's my analysis. So the first stanza establishes the speaker's disconnection to their partner, as evidenced by "...the visitor feeling I'm used to..." one would think that he would be familiar with the place where he and his partner live, however he feels disconnected. Like a visitor. Later in that same
