Spiders
System Of A Down (s.o.a.d) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The storming of poor June,
All the life running through her hair,
Approaching guiding light,
Our shallow years in fright,
Dreams are made winding through my head,
Before you know, Awake,
Your lives are open wide,
The V-chip gives them sight,
All the life running through her hair,
The spiders all in tune,
The evening of the moon,
Dreams are made winding through my head,
Through my head,
Before you know, Awake
Through my head,
Before you know,
Before you know I will be waiting all awake,
Dreams are made winding through her hair,
Dreams are made winding through her hair.
The song "Spiders" by System of a Down is a haunting melody that speaks of a guiding light in the form of a piercing radiant moon, which has the potential to guide one through their shallow years in fright. The song floats on the dreams that are made winding through the head of the singer. The spider is used as a metaphor and represents something that is all in tune.
The spider is traditionally considered the creator of traps and a predator. Here, it becomes a symbol of entrapment, where the dreams that are made are winding through the singer's head. The V-chip is spoken of as a force that gives sight to lives, thus being a sort of guiding light. The lyrics mention how it completely opens up people's lives, giving them an understanding of the world they live in.
Overall, the song is about the potential that a guiding light has to open up new avenues and connect people with deeper levels of understanding. The dream-like quality of the lyrics added to the hypnotic melody enhances the effect of the meaning.

Suddenly, you become conscious

"Words Are Spells"
Let's examine the word "words"... rearrange the letters to make "sword"... Words can cut like a sword... Not physically, but mentally/ spiritually...
Using words in a certain sequence can be phenomenal, given the structure is perfect, and the timing of mood with whom you're conversing with...

Ever been with a new date, and you were both conversing, and things "clicked" between you both?
...Words........... One of the most dangerous tools known to man...
