Three years after my divorce, my ex-wife murdered a man. It was a couple of years before this song came out. I visited her once. She looked well. But I knew then, that the surface was an illusion. She did 15 years for voluntary manslaughter. She was released in 2016 and lives alone. She once came to me attempting to bridge the gap of our past. I took her out for karaoke. I sang this song as if it were mine. I paid our tab and walked out the door. Leaving her with her charm. I've seen her a few times since and am happy to say that she got the message. Thanks Maynard.

@@the1andonlypop Actually, ya..but no. The song was written after a close "friend" to the band, or specific members passed due to losing their personal battle with addiction. The "point" being made, and more that well done, is how sometimes those that reform, or get "clean" tend to be self righteous and condecending. (sp?) This hit some nerves with Maynard.. hence making amends, and "recalling demons as if they are someone elses etrociousness" (sp?)... I can relate as my ex husband was an addict/alcoholic. He did choose to get "sober" after I finally was fed up..however hes def. a "dry drunk" in accordance with Alwanon, which is why this resonates with my soul.. he made ammends to every single person but me..and then hated me b/c I left him

you are right about the song judith being about his mother, however this song is not about his mother even in the slightest way. maynard has said it himself that this song is about people who beat an addiction and think that it somehow makes them superior or just a better version of themselves and think the past has no sway upon their future. if you knew of maynard's work and how he expresses himself you would know that a song about his mother wouldn't have such a sad feeling to it. and furthermore, this song sounds sad because he actually feels sad for the people this song pertains to, he pities their ignorance the same way i pity yours.

Maynard said he wrote this after attending an AA meeting!

I relate to this song every time I read the lyrics. I was a horrible addict & would steal money from my aunt & she thought she was losing her mind. One day she confronted me & as all addicts I denied stealing it. The night before she died she told me “I was killing her w/ my behavior & addiction & when she dies everyone would know the reason why she died”. I’ve been sober ten years, I attend church every week, I believe in walking in the footsteps of Jesus but will I be truly saved when I die? I loved this woman & have so much regret to this day. This song always makes me think of my Auntie Jo. Sometimes people aren’t acknowledged for their miracles & this woman should be a saint. Because I’m a different person now.

I was there too bro. I'll tell you what you can do. There are other addicts just like us and there out there right now. They don't think anyone will ever come for them. They feel like no one will ever love them. But both you and I, and others like us, know this pain. And even though we can't resurrect the dead, maybe we can prevent others from dying. It's hard work because you have to show them infinite patience. But it will give your life purpose and meaning. I'm 42 years old and I've been sober for 11 years now. You and I share this pain in our hearts. That makes us brothers. And it makes you someone who knows perfectly what people like us need. Peace, love, and prosperity to you and your loved ones.

Same! I was an addict for 15 yrs. Did everything I could to get my next fix. My nanny (she raised me from birth) died right in front of me heart failure. Her 1 dying plea for me was to get clean because she knew once she was gone I'd literally spiral out of control worse than I already was. That was in 2013 and for about 4 months after she died I did spiral out big time. The guilt ate me up. But I've been clean since, I just wish she could've seen it.. so I completely understand!!

This song is just simply amazing. It reminds me so much of my addiction and recovery. The message I get is don't place yourself on a "pink cloud." I am not better than anybody else. Remember who you once were and never forget. No-one will ever be fully recovered, so don't act like you are. I am 31 days clean and I am just as vulnerable to pick up as someone with 3 years clean. Stick to your family and to the people you can trust. One step, one day at a time, we can all get better.

one of my favourite A Perfect Circle tracks.... great melody and the drums sound amazing with a good sound system.

Whatever song you listen too, & love. The meaning of the song is what you feel the song is about in whatever way it touches you. It doesn't have to be bad or good. If it touches your soul then that's what it's about. It's art.

Music is subjective. Albeit IMO, THIS is just one example of the pulls of the voices and the melodies, and the each and every other thing necessary to say that what you are listening to, IS in fact, a work of breathtaking awe; wonder and artistic mastery - Vocally and harmonically.

I have such mixed feelings towards this song and this narrative. I love and hate it and find it both honest and harmful. I love how unique the perspective is and at the same time it breaks my heart. I don’t know who I relate with more: the addict who knows they were wrong and wants to move on or the family member/friend/significant other who can’t forget what they did. I think it’s a beautifully written and heartbreaking part of a complex situation.

You wanna hear something awesome? The way that serene, hollow "peace of mind" riff ends the song with a barely-noticeable little slide down the neck that beautifully disappears into the panicked reality of the next track, "Blue"

This is a powerful song but really it's telling you theres no hope! We humans have CHOICE as in FREE WILL there is a reason music like this resonates with us we don't know about morality.We access these dark relms of our psychology and come to no conclusion. All im saying is choose life!

Like the song gravity

do not fear the critics. embrace them. this is the way forward for you.

My dad loves a perfect circle and this was playing in his truck yesterday as we were going home and I had forgot about this song, because I used to really like it when I was about 9, so I decided to listen to it today. I think I'm hooked 😂

Lyric's that have to be lived to be understood properly!!

If we all had holo’s everyone would be wearing a necklace

My son died 09.14.16 from cardiomyopathy... He was 19 years, 2 days old... I still can't make amends.... I taught him N.I.N... He taught me A.P.C... I MISS YOU D.W.E... ETERNALLY. 💔

One of my favorite songs of all time...after reading everyone's comments, some are confused...this song is about recovering and congratulating the person for being reborn. However, just because you went through hell to recover, doesn't mean you are stronger than anyone now!!! You have to return the favor that you did recover and able to continue living again, but now how are you going to spend your time helping others instead of wasting it on doing whatever you want and stepping right over everyone to get to where YOU just want to be!!!! I went through 10 years of recovery and worked my way to now be a SA and MH counselor, but I will never quit thanking everyone who helped me get to where I am and now I am going to help others get through recovery as well since I understand what others are going through....however, it doesn't matter how much you pay me, because I am doing it for THEM, not me!!!! 12 steps of recovery, 13th step is to help others and not kick others aside to do anything I want!!!

I'm here because *I* have great taste in music

wow its been a while since I listened to this song. I feel like I have fallen in love all over again!

How does he have such a beautiful voice?? 🖤🖤🖤

Had this as an alarm when getting up in the morning. The best way to wake up EVER.

one of my favs!!!

Clean 5 1/2 years off heroin and I think he's singing this about me lmao. I don't act superior but I'm just a totally different person now and want nothing to do with my past self. I generally keep my past a secret and only tell close people about it. Grateful for the strength and wisdom my past self gave me fucking things up so bad though.

my ex who cheated on me and wanted me to come so he could make me dinner and give me flowers to apologize, and I told him I heard a song that reminded me of him by perfect circle. And he said what's it about and I said its about a halo. And he thought I meant it in a good way, and when I left I sent this song to him! Seriously a great moment!

They trade one drug for another. They get their high off being self righteous now.

I love this song, it puts me in another world when I'm listening to it.

To me this song speaks a lot on religion. They get rid of the demons then never bother or arent even considering making things right. They think because they are "saved" they get to just keep living like nothing happen... like its someone elses mistakes.

This is what the modern day church will teach so that the people continue to mindlessly sin feeling justified in their own beliefs and pride. However, the Word tells us narrow is the path and few will find the Way. Show me faith without action. It is unfortunate that the corruption of the church and knowledge has and continue to lead those, much like Maynard, away from righteousness. Mindlessly consuming away what is good, a system predicated on stripping away the relationship of Creator and that which He created ultimately leading the world into turmoil, a place we all exist today, Babylon. Marley understood this. Ironically, it is the system of appealing to fleshly wants and desires that creates the inherent addiction so many struggle with; fighting our own inhibitions we turn to materialism thus perpetuating the sinful nature of man, spreading it through imperialism until there is one world, one means of exchange, and ultimately one religion; a religion in which man has deified himself above all.

This is a very chilling song

The line "Recall the deeds as if they're all someone else's atrocious stories, now you stand reformed before us all--- so glad to see you well." I know the type and they're so hard to listen to. Like you made it out, great. But stealing from the people who loved you, getting people hooked just so you didn't have to get high alone, destroying people's lives... All of that stuff you did wasn't done by some other person. You still committed those terrible acts, pretending you never did just because you got sober? It doesn't work like that.

This song has always been one of the most relatable of APC everyone has somebody who fits this song.

This song is a reminder that addiction is not curable. Getting sober is easy, staying sober is not. No matter how far you've come, sobriety can only be maintained through constant vigilance. You can work on what led you down your self destructive path, but some of the destruction can never be fixed. The pieces that won't fit back together will always be with you and each addict must learn to live with some measure of guilt for the things that can't be mended. This is why no matter how long an addict is sober, it's important to always identify as an addict: to remember those to whom it's impossible to make amends.
