On the surface, a critique of the methods of contemporary medicine. However, threads are woven throughout the song which point to a more mental/spiritual/emotional/whatever type of healing that the narrator yearns for.
A feasible interpretation would be that the lyrics are an extended metaphor, usi...
[Verse]
Not sure what's worse
The wait, or the waiting room
"You're next, sir"
Becomes a cruel taunt to you
Recycled air
The smell of sleep and disinfectant
Your god is
A two door elevator
[Chorus]
Do they even cure you?
(Cut me open, drug me)
Or is it just to humor us before we die?
(Repair all my defects)
If only we could
Heal ourselves
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
We wouldn't
Need to be hooked up to these machines
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
[Interlude]
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
[Bridge]
Let's redefine
Let's redefine
Let's redefine
Let's redefine
Let's redefine
Let's redefine
What it means to heal
[Chorus]
Do they even cure you?
(Cut me open, drug me)
Or is it just to humor us before we die?
(Repair all my defects)
If only we could
Heal ourselves
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
We wouldn't
Need to be hooked up to these machines
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
[Outro]
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
