      @nicky9589 Yeah, for me, it hits because all I've ever wanted was for anyone to see me & love me. I grew up with lots of childhood trauma, went through fostercare, and straight into an abusive marriage where I've been trapped for over 15 years. My life has been hell, I have no support system and I'm just wondering if it will ever get better or if this is just how life is. 😭

    This song kept me from killing myself. 2001. I was in the Navy. Lost my mom the year before. My wife was diagnosed with schizophrenia and she was my only rock. And I was losing her too. Slowly before my eyes. This song this whole album was so beautiful and heartbreakingly sad. It made me realize I wasn't alone.

      @rfmerrill 2 ปีที่แล้ว +68

      It's a song about wanting to love someone who's been hurt bad, but never being able to meet and talk to the real them inside. You try to relate to them but all you find is the wall they've put up to protect themselves and the broken, barely-functioning person behind it.
      The sadness in knowing that there's a good person in there who could be a good friend or a lover, but that you won't be able to break them out of that prison on your own without their trust and their own effort.
      "3 libras" could be a poetic way of saying "3 pounds" -- the approximate weight of an adult human brain.

    I'm 44 , I've always loved perfect circle/tool. I'm about 10 days clean off of Fentanyl. This is probably like # 10 times getting clean off of fucking pills. Gone long periods of staying clean and I'm determined to make this one stick. I got to. I've almost lost 2 people oding in front of me that I super care about. I don't know how I would continue living if they had died on me. Really struggling to find anything to be happy about. Reading these comments and really understanding what this song is about made me cry like a baby!!! I understand and know depression and addiction. This song resonates so perfect circle with me. That you all for making me feel all the feels. I can't wait until my body will produce dopamine again until then I cry for everyone who's loved and wasn't seen or appreciated or lost a love one to addiction or depression. Hang in there will get through this together and happier days are ahead. If you struggle with drugs please do you and everyone a favor please stop I love you.

    Lyrics:
    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

    The first time I heard this song was right after I didn't tell someone how i felt about them.. I was so obvious.. but i thought she either didn't notice.. or wasn't interested. I wanted to tell her how i felt.. but i didn't.. then she was gone.. lost my chance.. she moved away.. then i heard this song.. and felt like my soul died.. so she ended up getting married.. and i wished so bad that was me.. we still talked online.. and i kept that part of me.. that secret to myself.. it ate at me.. i hated myself for years... the years passed 13 years to be exact.. then one day.. had the urge to stop what i was doing.. got on fb refreshed... there she was.. and back in the area too.. i added her right away.. she added me .. we talked.. she was excited to hear from me.. we talked for a while.. all these feelings came rushing back to me.. i found the courage and told her how i felt.. how i still feel.. she told me she felt the same.. and now here we are.. madly in love.. soulmate/twin flame level love.. I just wanted to share that.. take a chance.. don't live a life of regret..

    I have a mother with a severe drinking problem and mental illness. She was incredibly abusive. And as a kid, I wasn't mad, I just felt bad for her. This song always reminds me of my mom. "Perhaps I am expecting a little too much from the wounded." "Difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed, and passed over." "You don't, you don't, you don't see me." "Eyes of a fallen angel, eyes of a tragety."

      That's the one
      We expect others to see the world as we do.. we see something SO EASY but.. everyone is doing the best they can with THEIR SUBJECTIVE REALITY
      We cannot see their circumstances nor how they pattern match the data of this reality. We SHOULD NOT JUDGE
      The key point about life is.. make choices.. shit happens. BE REAL ! you will get quality feedback.. generally you get out of life what you put in.. if you are good natured you will win in the end.. but randomness is there to obfuscate the obvious... and to ensure that you MUST CHOOSE FOR YOURSELF !! change only comes from within. Sometimes you are just shit out of luck but you will always be best off if you are genuine and dont kid yourself about your EGO.. ego is not good.. it can drive us, but feed it too much and you are heading towards the dark side.. eg corporate scum (but not all corporates are anywhere near pure evil lol.. there is a reason corporations run the world, most ppl are pretty oblivious to lifes lessons!)
      Noone can MAKE you choose to be mad for example.. there is always a better choice just often we can't see it or are afraid of being "not good enough / a failure".. which is actually illogical.. besides if you could be MADE to choose a certain way.. prohibition anyone ? yeah it doesn't work.

    And you don't see me

    It's a whole Freudian thing, how we long for the whole status of the womb. Keep in mind that's a theory and doesn't necessarily explain our feeling of lack. But, as it goes, you look for that connection in others, you really want them to understand you. You start out in life trapped in all the fallacies of human thinking, namely that physical attractiveness correlates with goodness, intelligence, positive emotional qualities. But an artistic, sensitive person increasingly finds that connection difficult to find, and realistically if we're talking Freud, it's not possible to become a unified whole. So I would say this song seems to be about seeking that connection, looking for another person who makes you feel less alone. And because of human nature, you're seeking out more attractive people, which only leads you to frustration. Then, this is complicated by having fame because people can't see you. They already think they know you, even though they only know your persona. Which is not unlike being attractive, in that people are generally satisfied by your looks and don't even bother to get to know you. So you're struggling with a world where everyone likes you de facto and doesn't even care about your personality, feelings, anything. Which only complicates what is often an endless impossible quest to find a sense of connection with other people in this world.

    I used to sing this song to Cody as I rocked and nursed him. The perfect rocking chair rhythm. My milk flowing down his cheeks as my tears rained down on him. I knew his father did not love me and never would.
    Is it coincidence Maynard ? how artists some how magically parallel and mirror the lives of the people who look to them, like ravenous dogs, for the emotional energy necessary to forge their way forward in life?

    When I was a young, naive and soulless teenager, I had no idea what this song was about.
    Having grown up considerably, and having experienced my own series of unfortunate relationships, I revisit "3 Libras" with a whole new perspective, understanding and appreciation.
    There is an old soul inhabiting James Maynard Keenan, and he has been sent to our world to deliver a powerful and uplifting message to the young souls that make up the majority.
    Thank you.

    Here’s to you Joshua Chastain. My love.

    Who I reconnected with over a decade later over his OD/ 3 week hospital stay and his stories about that time.
    He lived another 5 years with me. Married, step kids, and a child of our own.
    Until his demons caught up with him.
    He played this song loud when he couldn’t find words.💔

      I’m sorry for your loss. I have 6 years without alcohol and 5+ years without any painkillers which were my 2 substances of choice. My alcohol abuse started very early on but painkillers were something that happened later in life after multiple injuries and a chronic back issue. I’ve never OD’d on opiates but I gave myself alcohol poisoning a handful of times and still deal with stomach problems from my years of drinking.
      Your comment helps me remember I’m still in this fight for life I can’t ever feel like I’m no longer an addict or an alcoholic I’ll always be that and I have to thank myself and God every day that I stay sober

The lyrics are pure gold amd the instrumental is amazing, the emotion MJK shows is impeccable. Reading lots of comments and its amazing howamy people feel this way or somehow are attached to the song, music is amazing!

    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've looked 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 through it all and 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 see me.
    You don't, you don't, you don't see me at all.

    I'm sure this song has many meanings. For me, it reminds me of a love you would have for someone, that doesn't love you back. You "threw them the obvious", they're oblivious and don't "see you". The song really portraits a heartbreak onto the listener of a deep love that you wanted, wished it could have been, but never will be.
    "Oh well"

Now, hearing it by coincidence again after such a long time, it was like a sign to face childhood & family trauma after over 20years of running away. All the old memories and feelings come back while listening to this.
    It seems true - you can't run away from your issues - they always follow, like a shadow.
