Album Rating: 4.0
I've always found this interpretation to be very interesting from songmeanings in regard to Warflower.
"I think the song is about 2 personalities which the narrator (a student / pupil) is host of. One personality is about to set the classroom on fire. The other is the "good one".
"Peridon Plus 2 mg/2 mg Tablet belongs to the drug group known as atypical antipsychotic, used in the treatment of psychotic disorders. This medication can treat schizophrenia and manic depression, both symptoms of bipolar disorder."
Got 2 tickets to peridon - the narrator has to take pills against his schizophrenia. His other personality "just can' sleep" - he is awake and "on the way to the classroom". The good part of him "got no reason to worry cause it's just a dream", so he actually is asleep and does not realize his other personality is about to kill his fellow students / bullies.
"on my way to the classroom lit the fire it's a burning desire "
He sat the classroom on fire.
"murder water is needed"
Here the "good personality" suddenly wakes up in alarm: murder, water is needed to put out the fire (literally in the classroom but maybe also the burning desire for blood of the "angry personality").
I think the reason why the person has issues might be because he is bullied in school :
"hate seems always following can't tell if I can run, can't find my way outside hate seems always following can't tell if I should just run or hide some people hold onto their misery a token of their lives painted faces, warlike, they march on feel the end near, blinding and screaming for blood they'd do anything"
Hate is following him, and threatens his life, so the "angry" personalities feels like he's at war and wants vengeance."
