i don't understand why everyone jumps in with maynard, i seriously think tool just live off their own self induced hype, i don't think their lyrics or image are half as clever, cryptic or out of the norm as they would have you believe.

Serj Tankian (self-titled album)

"I had an out of body experience, the other day her name was jesus,
and for her , everyone cried, everyone cried , everyonecried!!
TRY HER PHILOSOPHY!!
