"Difficult not too feel a little bit...disappointed....passed over". And that's how I feel...man I love that part

[@OneHippiesMusings]

Yesterday I txt a friend about this jeep I just traded for. Bunch of problems and Im no mechanic, he is. He told me to come down to his moms, a block away, he'd dropped the ball in inviting me over. I go over and it's a Bday party for his son. I couldn't help but feel a bit passed over. I mean, your son's bday and you invite even your coworker but not me? But in the afternoon I had a convo with him and his soon to be brother in law. The BIL comes to me after and says that he envisioned that very conversation a few years before. We bonded the rest of the afternoon like I never expected I would when I met him years before. So yes, things happen and they are unfortunate. But do not take a negative connotation, this only invites suffering. Things unfold as they do for a reason, the universe strives to bring us what we are looking for, but it will never do so in the way we would prefer. Best wishes, I hope these words find you doing well.

I finally told her and she just didn't deal with it or accept it. Here I am expecting just a little bit from the wounded. She was abused. To feel disappointed and passed over. She ignored it! Screaming you don't see me!!! This song is it for me. Thank you for helping me find a way to express my pain fully through your music. I see right through it all is when I look at her back story.

@@PhoenixProdLLC feelings are that one aspect of human life that defies all rationale and logic… alas, without them life isn’t as sweet.

You're so right. I call it the blooming onion theory. As we grow up, we develop these layers of artificial nonsense and it gets to the point we forget who we are and our purpose here on this earth. In my early 20s, I went through a revival of sorts where I cut myself off from basically everyone and everything I knew. Spent 2 whole years in solitude peeling back those layers of crap until I found myself again. Looking back, I can say with absolute certainty that this time period saved my life. Had I kept on going like I was, Id be dead or in jail. The answer is always within us.

[@TommieTijerina-ie4ht]

That's very true but how often do we communicate what we actually see to those with the facade ....we change nothing if we don't speak

[@AhmedAlqaisi]

Maynard's voice brings warmth to me in this song..

[@ginawhoever9734]

+Ahmed Alqaisi (ATN) yes. like you can hear in his voice that he recognizes that he is dealing with a wounded person here, and that that's the main reason that they are hurting him...out of their own wounded ability to have or feel any real empathy. he almost seems to feel sympathy/hurt for *them* and not outright anger, though the same can not be said for the other person. this is how it becomes more of a sad/tragic thing much more than a "fuck you" kind of thing coming from Maynard's point of view. IMO that is the best way to deal with it, anger against anger never gets anyone anywhere but in a worse situation. but to be able to have sympathy, even for someone who is hurting you, is much more healthy and you heal much more quickly...

[@michaelhorta8649]

You should listen to tool his voice is just wow it hits u best way to put it

a story of losing a part of yourself that's forever gone away within someone else

[@vaghistory]

Molov Exactly. You wonder if you ever be able to connect with someone the same, even though they weren’t feeling the same way. I had to tell a girl just ten minutes ago that I could no longer speak to her because she didn’t think of me the same way I thought of her. I felt like I could spend the rest of my life with her. It sucks to lose a part of yourself like that, but it’s better than pining after something that will never be.

[@devno999]

The instruments in this song are composed so well, it's very sad but yet comforting at the same time. With the lyrics added in the way that they were, just makes the song even more beautiful. My mom used to play this song in the car when I was like 2 and she just re-introduced it to me not too long ago and it's odd because the song sounds so fimiliar, like I've heard it all my life. I find it so strange that the last I heard it was at the age of 2, yet I can remember it so vividly like it was only yesterday when I first listened to the song. I get such strong feelings and emotions from this song that I can't even comprehend because of that reason.

Ah god, what a song.

[@marcopolo9922]

I think this song is more helping a broken person who's worth helping, a fallen angel of tragedy, and saying it's hard to do so asking to much of the wounded, I can relate to that personally, but healing processes and self discovery, feeling emotions not felt before is a long process and many times I personally have felt very unnoticed when it comes to my progression with those types of people but must always remind myself to be patient, especially helping those you truly love get better. And remember to with caution and expertise in psychological understanding, use neutral advice that aids in self understanding, and self control, reminding my own self that it's them that saved themselves by trusting me, not me that saved them. But some days this song hits me hard. Remember severely damaged people may feel like this but it's up to the real ones to understand, there's many level to healing and it can become fucking lonely sometimes.

Still listening in 2021 🖤🌹 Threw you the obvious And you flew with it on your back A name in your recollection Down among a million same Difficult not to feel a little bit Disappointed and passed over When I look right through To see you naked but oblivious And you don't see me But I threw you the obvious Just to see if there's more behind The eyes of a fallen angel Eyes of a tragedy Here I am expecting Just a little bit too much from the wounded but I see, see through it all See through, see you 'Cause I threw you the obvious to see what occurs behind the Eyes of a fallen angel Eyes of a tragedy Oh well, oh well Apparently nothing Apparently nothing at all You don't, you don't, you don't see me You don't, you don't, you don't see me You don't, you don't, you don't see me You don't, you don't, you don't see me You don't see me You don't, you don't You don't see me at all..

[@Hermesdaughter33]

This song is one of my most favorite songs ever! Look into Maynard's writings and you'll find out more about this song and it just crushes you a lil bit more.

@Breanne Tinsley his autobiography or Google it..🤘

When they are all the same and pursue wearing different faces- slowly becoming invisible to you over time….you see nothing for years, having fallen emotionally unavailable and uncompelled by every rose thrown at you. You lose faith in love, until it seems to cross your path one day- a face you can finally see- but only, he sees you not….. Oh well.

[@miaristau317]

this song gets to my soul... I feel like he's talking about my life. my experiences. the way I have acted before. and it hurts because I do fear vulnerability. I constantly try to escape... but everyday I wake up I battle to just be Honest to the outside world around me.

[@monyG1979]

I would never! I dig music from the 50s and 60s..i was born in 79. u like what u like!

[@SonicFanChris4]

Such an incredible song. Tool and A Perfect Circle are amazing bands.

[@Gaijin1111]

Maynard James Keenan is a legend

[@thisguy8106]

These are some of the best lyrics of all time.

[@kounterfeit6ski791]

Not knowing what the song was actually about it came in my shuffle as I was driving home from the hospital after my father had to be put into an induced coma because of lung problems. I didnt get to say goob bye while he was awake. Ill never forget hearing this and crying in the car. "You cant, you cant, see me" "o well" He was terminally ill and i didnt know. He died a few days later. This song will forever be attached to that memory for me. I cant keep it together when i listen to this, its too powerful.

[@rilenixx]

one of my favorites of any maynard song. so many memories

[@ld6318]

Thank you for these lyrics 😔❤️

[@bobbie1053]

Such a beautiful song! My ex played it on his electric guitar and sang it to me! Still gets me every time I listen to it..... it's gut wrenchingly beautiful ❤️

[@danielgallegos5227]

Beautiful! hell of a way to go back in time and reminisce.

[@NukeTheGhettos]

[@jasonmihatsch7762]

I'm the same dude. peace out

[@amccutcheon1988]

I have always loved this song for many years, but it wasn't until tonight when the lyrics finally clicked perfectly with me and what I am going through. A Perfect Circle.

[@SteveDiRocco]

😢You don't see me....its Difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed..and passed over...you don't see me at all 😢oh well ..apparently nothing at all...you don't see me!!!!😢..YOU DON'T SEE ME AT ALL.😭

[@poisin224]

After being used, manipulated, and cheated on twice in the span of 3 years, this song has so much meaning to me. I can't even pick a favorite verse. This is James' best work, hands down.

[@rickschmoe6723]

I like revisiting apc and tool songs because at each new point in my life I find new meaning or some type of odd parallel to events I'm experiencing that never occurred to me before. That's the magic of profound artistry like this. It contains so many facets and perspectives that it can be anything you need it to be or connect to you on a unique level no one else may be able to sense. This song in particular could be a veritable theme song to what I'm dealing with now. I'm making my feelings obvious but perhaps expecting too much from the wounded... She doesn't see me.

[@SweenyTV]

Timeless, this was a great song then, it's a great song now and will forever be...a great song.

[@JayMcG-us1ic]

The love of my life, I never told her how much she meant to me, She hates me, will not talk to me. April of 2009 is the last time we talked. I still think about her. I still crave her. I am treated as if I am dead, which hurts more than I can conjure into words. This moment I am thinking about her. Does she think about me? Does she dream about me like I do her? Will she ever realize destiny binds us together? Or will I live with the pain alone forever?

[@tacobelle69]

Hands down my favorite song... always resonates... I wish he’d see me

[@danielamassaro9780]

love this song an the band !!! ahhhhhh it just makes me smile when i listen to them.

[@tokiwartooth09]

i....i cant

[@dusty1268]

Right on man! Schism was the first song I heard by Tool back in 2005 when I was riding in the car with my dad! I was 10! Rock on!

[@jestle]

Saw them live yesterday. Caught 2 picks and bought a tour shirt. BEST NIGHT OF MY 11 YEARS OF LIFE!

[@alshurdom6917]

I have this pressing feeling that Maynard wrote this song just to prove to every band ever who wrote a power ballad, just to say "yep, I can write these better than you too." :)

[@karenovalasiti3018]

Incredibly bittersweet

[@henryjahirramossurco546]

Simply It’s beautiful this song.

[@anyssabotello4275]

My ex and I would lay down for hours and jam to rock music. This song would always pop up and it will forever remind me of him. "You don't see me."
