A PERFECT CIRCLE

- The Package Lyrics

Clever got me this far
Then tricky got me in
Eye on what i'm after
I don't need another friend
Smile and drop the cliche
'Till you think I'm listening
I take just what I came for
Then I'm out the door again

Peripheral on the package
Don't care to settle in
Time to feed the monster
I don't need another friend
Comfort is a mystery
Crawling out of my own skin
Just give me what I came for, then I'm out the door again

Lie to get what I came for
Lie to get just what I need
Lie to get what I crave
Lie and smile to get what's mine

Eye on what i'm after
I don't need another friend
Nod and watch your lips move
If you need me to pretend
Because clever got me this far
Then tricky got me in
I'll take just what I came for
Then I'm out the door again

Lie to get what I came for
Lie to get what I need now
Lie to get what I'm craving
Lie and smile to get what's mine

Give this to me
Mine, mine, mine
Take what's mine
Mine, mine, mine
Take what's mine
Mine, mine, mine

Lie to get what I came for
Lie to get what I need now
Lie to get what I'm craving
Lie to smile and get what's mine

Give this to me
Take what's mine
Mine, mine, mine
Take what's mine
Give this to me

Take what's mine, take what's mine, mine...
Take what's mine, take what's mine, take what's mine,
This is mine, mine, mine [whispered]

What is the meaning behind The Package lyrics?


When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, The Package by A Perfect Circle is focusing on the human aspect of self-reliance and the quest for personal gain, while at the same time being very strong and cruel in their techniques, like 'feeding the monster' to portray unquenchable thirsts and 'clever' and 'tricky' to show basically messing around with others in the lyrics’ context. The package lyrics mainly point to solitude, despair, anger, reflection and depression. However, the song also points to and indirectly communicates the ideas of self-reliance, deception, greed and disconnection. The lyrics of the song consist of themes of deception and egoistic behavior, which might not be suitable for the younger generation. The continuous warning of lying and grabbing what one wants without caring about the others communicates sexually charged young-adult themes that deserve a PG-13 rating.

Such an amazing song musically, and brutally honest. All he wants is to have sex with a girl and get back to his life, and he doesn't care what it takes.
