jars

the lyrics

Hold onto chance
Lest we bleed ourselves
Then save for the pets
They’re the loneliest

Put into jars
We’ll save this earth
Put into jars
We’ll save this earth

We can’t both become the same pawn
That’s made to fall
Oil that tastes like blood
Stole the summer scent from me to you
You’re stabbing me through you
You’re stabbing you through him
And betting most of this world
We’ll add enough of the whole world

Steal from yourselves
It never felt so good
And feed from their hand
Confused by opposites

Put into jars
We’ll save this earth
Put into jars
Keep safe this earth

We can’t both become the same pawn
That’s made to fall
Oil that tastes like blood
Stole the summer scent from me to you
You’re stabbing me through you
You’re stabbing you through him
And betting most of this world
We’ll add enough of the whole world
This world
We’ll add enough of the whole world

Feeling manic for a day
Depends on the trend
Depends on the surface
If the sun never sets

We can’t both become the same pawn
That’s made to fall
Oil that tastes like blood
Stole the summer scent from me to you
You’re stabbing me through you
You’re stabbing you through him
And betting most of this world
We’ll add enough of the whole world

Is the main thing you’ll shout ’til the bitter end
Into jars

chi-interpretation

These lyrics are interesting, as if Peter is struggling with his alter ego, or perhaps even himself, as it’s common knowledge that he struggles with ADHD, hence their song VitiminR, R is Ritalin; thus the line “Feeling manic for a day, Depends on the trend, Depends on the surface, If the sun never sets.” This is the constant feeling of not knowing if you’re coming or going, as it’s a continuous struggle to stay focused and the frustration of sleep paralysis.

So, with that constant struggle, he wants to put it all in a jar. However, this could also be a double entendre as there is something called the jar theory, meaning the DNA from every living thing has been put into test tubes and stored underground. After the earth has been destroyed, it can be regenerated with the DNA in the jars.
