Luca's body is dropped into the ocean with a pair of cement boots so he will sink. In the book he is found to be a spy of sorts working for the Corleone family, and when Sollozzo finds out, Sollozzo murders Luca. He uses the metaphor of Luca Brasi in the Godfather. He is cast out of heaven down into the hopelessness of Hell. His life of Sin is dissected and he is found unworthy. In this line Jesse imagines his judgement at the gates of Heaven. I'll still find someone to be everything we know that you'll never be"] He is someone who always knows "where you've been." Obviously, in God's omnipotence knows the truth of every sin we all commit. He pleads with God to help him to return to the righteous path, though Jesse sees little hope in his redemption, because he "never listens to anything."

Shimmering under a moon made in anger and angst ["So drop me a line with a hook and some raw bleeding bait Jesse refuses to "touch" Him because he feels ashamed in His presence (the same way Adam feels ashamed of his nakedness in God's eyes).

First of all, the lyrics posted here are all wrong. Song MeaningI think this is another religious song, in keeping with the entire album, where Jesse is considering how his actions will be viewed in the eyes of God. We'll still find someone to be everything we know that you'll never be Unless you have friends among fish, there'll still be no air to breathe
So we've fixed you with cement galoshes, and no one can save you now You'll never work well with our group, not with the faults we've found Shimmering like a penny out of reach in the subway grate Shimmering under a moon made in anger and haste Please drop me a line with a hook and some raw bleeding baitįor I am uncaught and still swimming alone in the lake Son, the last thing you'll realize you need is what you've already got I am drearily bloodletting this bed wetting cosmonaut When I disappear it is clear I am up to no good When I disappear do you fear for the sister I took?
