However, Maynard James Keenan has also said that his lyrics are always interpretations of the music, and it's therefore important to find your own meaning to songs. There has also been speculation that the lyrics could have referred to Bill Hicks, to whom the band had a close friendship, and also to whom much of the album is dedicated, in artwork and quotes on the song "Third Eye".

Eulogy
Tool Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say
We'll miss him
We'll miss him

He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say
We'll miss him

We'll miss him
We are going to miss him
We are going to miss him

So long
We wish you well
You told us how you weren't afraid to die
Well, so long
Don't cry
Or feel too down
Not all martyrs see divinity
But at least you tried

Standing above the crowd
He had a voice that was strong and loud
We'll miss him, we'll miss him

Ranting and pointing his finger
At everything but his heart
We'll miss him, we'll miss him
We are going to miss him
We are going to miss him

Yeah, no way, yeah to recall
What it was that you had said to me
Like I care at all
But it was so loud
You sure could yell
You took a stand on every little thing
And it was so loud

You could be the one
Who saves me from
My own existence

Warn while some child
Might chill, nine one two

(I'm too smart when you're invisible)
(By the bone symbol on you)
(So he bashed his skull through the window)
(While looking out to the sea)
(Like torment of my ego)
(And we're amused by this)

Yeah, standing above the crowd
He had a voice that was strong and loud and I
Swallowed his facade 'cause I'm so eager to identify with
Someone above the ground
Someone who seemed to feel the same
Someone prepared to lead the way, and
Someone who would die for me

Will you? Will you now?
Would you die for me?
Don't you fuckin' lie
Don't you step out of line
Don't you step out of line
Don't you step out of line
Don't you fuckin' lie

You've claimed all this time that you would die for me
Why then are you so surprised when hear your own eulogy?
He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say
He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say

Come down
Get off your fuckin' cross
We need the fuckin' space
To nail the next fool martyr

To ascend you must die
You must be crucified

For our sins and our lies
Goodbye

Overall Meaning

"Eulogy" by Tool is a song that pays a tribute to a man who claimed he wasn't afraid to die. The lyrics criticize the man's self-righteousness and his tendency to point fingers at others while ignoring his own flaws. The singer acknowledges the man's strong personality and charisma, but ultimately sees through his facade and calls him out for being a hypocrite. The line "not all martyrs see divinity, but at least you tried" suggests that the man may have had good intentions, but his actions fell short of his words. The chorus repeats "he had a lot to say, he had a lot of nothing to say," emphasizing the singer's frustration with the man's lack of authenticity.

The song's theme of martyrdom and immortality is further emphasized in the final verse, where the singer calls out those who claim they would die for him. The lyrics suggest that these people are just seeking attention and are not truly committed to their words. The line "get off your fuckin' cross, we need the fuckin' space" implies that the singer is tired of people who put themselves on a pedestal and demand attention and recognition.

Overall, "Eulogy" is a powerful criticism of self-righteousness and blind devotion. The lyrics challenge us to question our own motives and actions and not just blindly follow others.

Line by Line Meaning

He had a lot to say
He spoke often and at length

He had a lot of nothing to say
He frequently talked without actually saying anything meaningful

We'll miss him
We will feel his absence

We are going to miss him
We will definitely miss him

So long
Farewell

We wish you well
We hope for your success in the future

You told us how you weren't afraid to die
You claimed to be unafraid of death

Don't cry
Do not show emotion

Or feel too down
Do not become too sad

Not all martyrs see divinity
Not all who suffer for their beliefs are seen as divine or worthy of worship

But at least you tried
You made an effort

Standing above the crowd
You were seen as special or superior to others

He had a voice that was strong and loud
Your voice was memorable and attention-grabbing

Ranting and pointing his finger
You frequently expressed anger and blamed others

At everything but his heart
You criticized everything except for your own feelings and intentions

Yeah, no way, yeah to recall
I do not remember what you said

What it was that you had said to me
I do not know what you told me

Like I care at all
I have no interest or concern

But it was so loud
Your words were overpowering and hard to ignore

You sure could yell
You were skilled at shouting and being heard

You took a stand on every little thing
You had an opinion on every minor issue

You could be the one
You had the potential

Who saves me from
Who rescues me from

My own existence
My own life and struggles

Warn while some child
A warning for when a child

Might chill, nine one two
Might become frightened, call emergency services

(I'm too smart when you're invisible)
(I can see right through you)

(By the bone symbol on you)
(By the insignia on your clothing)

(So he bashed his skull through the window)
(He smashed his head into the window)

(While looking out to the sea)
(While gazing out at the ocean)

(Like torment of my ego)
(Like a source of great discomfort and distress to my sense of self)

(And we're amused by this)
(And we find this darkly humorous)

To ascend you must die
To rise up, you must first die or sacrifice something

You must be crucified
You must suffer greatly for your beliefs

For our sins and our lies
For the wrongdoing and deception of humanity

Goodbye
Farewell

I remember this 50 year old woman who I worked with and I had just started working there BACK IN LIKE 04.... They let us bring radios in on weekends at our stations.... I heard this old lady screeching "DON`T YOU STEP OUT OF LINE. DON`T YOU STEP OUT OF LINE DON`T YOU FUCKING LIE" across this huge factory.... Man it was so funny/awesome. I gave her a copy of 10,000 days when it was leaked, she was so stoked.... Then she got caught smoking crack and I never saw her again.

@@6118GUCCI In religious beliefs, an individual who dies in a war over a principle (divinity/god here), becomes a martyr. The sacrifice in its most purest form has the privilege of visitng paradise and see the divinity. Maynard furthers the idiosyncrasy of this concept and claims that not all who die for their beliefs can visit "the very first reason" they have been martyred for. This prevarication reflects not only on absurdness of being killed for a belief that might be a futile principle initially, but also admires the virtue of a person who is totally devoted to an idealogical phenomenon. Note: I am not a religious person, and I praise his lyrics merely for its metaphorical representation :)

As a 60 yr old, I grew up with good rock and roll. Especially enjoyed the progressive bands like Rush, Crack the Sky, Jethro Tull, Alex Harvey, etc. I had given up on ever hearing anything that takes me far away like that again. Then my kids were teenagers, and all of s sudden I had some new music to check out. I enjoyed all the Seattle scene--it was a huge breather from all the reverb-on-everhing/drum machined 80's disco horseshit of that era. Then one day my 15 yr old daughter says "Dad, you will Really like this band.Listen" So i did. I liked. This band eventually changed my life--the lyrics had me reading & digging into al kinds of esoteric stuff, the insane technical prowess of Adam and Justin are one step beyond. I'm a working drummer but things Dany does never even crossed my mind--the BEST I've ever heard. So I went to see them when they played in my city. I was not disappointed. They have the best visuals of any band-And I've seen a ton of them. Their crew is just as talented as they are. I could never say anything bad about this band. Buy their records and Merch==I'm wearing my Laterelus shirt right now. Take the time to listen, then go see them when you can. Long live Tool.

Immediately as they departed a late summer thunderstorm rolled through. Just as the rain ended (mind you, I sat out in the field absorbing every drop), Tool came on and opens with Vicarious.

Bill Hicks has long been a hero of mine, and it was his quotation on this album ("today a young man on acid...") that originally led me to him (sadly, after he died). Not trying to be a dick but that doesn't make sense. Hicks had anything but "nothing" to say, never claimed he'd die for anyone, and he wasn't a martyr. Admittedly, he could be loud, and some of his last performances indicated he had shed his fear to die and wanted to share his ultimate philosophical epiphanies, as he knew very well that his time was short due to cancer.

Tool can be pretty complex but I'm nearly certain this is about toxic evangelical preachers like Fred Phelps, David Koresh or Jim Jones which were still hot topics when this was released, most of whom would have happily claimed to die for their followers so long as those followers obeyed without question. Hicks would have hated that shit.

I already own this album, but WHY would they put an ad right in the middle of it? There are other options for ads once you upload any kind of video, but they decided to use the worst one. And I don't use an ad block because I actually like to support content creators, I just don't like it when my favorite bands music gets interrupted by a video ad that doesn't need to be there

@YoutubeIsRanByNazis

Benan Content uploaders dont always determine the placement of ads. Youtube ultimately can cOntrol where they place them.
