Digital Bath Lyrics

You move like I want to
To see like your eyes do
We are downstairs where
No one can see
New life breakaway
Tonight I feel like more
Tonight I
You make the water warm
You taste foreign
And I know you can see
The cord breakaway
Because tonight I feel like more
Tonight I feel like more
Feel like more
You breathed
Then you stopped
I breathed then dried you off
And tonight
I feel like more
Tonight

Chino says he came up with the idea while drunk in the bathroom of the Hollywood Hills house where White Pony was recorded. - "It was probably 5 in the morning - we were still up partying - and I just pictured this whole scenario of having this girl, bringing her downstairs and taking a bath and like, out of nowhere, just reaching back and . . . electrocuting - basically throwing some kind of electrical device in the bathtub and then taking her out of the bath and drying her off and putting her clothes back on."

i agree and the song is wicked! Masterpiece!!!

Not Valid

This is a great song but it think it's deaper than it seems....I think it's about being completely infatuated with someone, so much that you want to "see like their eyes do" and I think maybe this is the first time these two people are having sex because he says "tonight I feel like more"....he says she "tastes foreign" and this also leads me to think it's the first time he's tasted her like this....I think alot of the deftone's songs are sexual but i think this one is more about pure infatuation and lust....

More to this interpretation, I totally agree. I also think Chino's idea of taking a bath with her and electrocuting them both is a symbol of their first sexual encounter. The lyrics " I know you can see the cord break away" confirms her acknowledging their connection and letting herself fall into the lust with him. Very sensual and sexually metaphorical song! I love it and can totally relate!

although this has a kinda of dark meaning to it and the lyrics are limited..i think its very sexy.

"... We had this bathroom that merged Abe's room and my room together, and we spent a lot of time just hanging out in the bathroom, staying up and partying all night. I came up with this scenario of luring a female friend down into the bath and electrocuting her. It's a beautiful song, but it does have a sinister side." - Chino Moreno

This song was my all time favorite off the album but ever since i found out what it means...it gives me the creeeeeps! what psychos would be singing about something that horrible???? weird...

I honestly think this song is about a dude who is trapped in a relationship looking for some distance.. he meets a girl who is completely free from confinements, which he seems to envy slightly.. he wants to experience that, and share his experience with her.. she noticed his leap, and was taken away by this.. it seems to have humbled her into thinking that she could also maintain a relationship and keep a distance, or quite possibly, that she has fallen in love with this guy.. and he is relieved to watch her realization, which could possibly have been his goal from the very start.. I'm a schizo so this might not make sense to anyone but myself.. lol

I think electrocuting the girl is a metaphor for loosing ones virginity with a girl. When the guy loses his virginity, he feels greater than he ever felt, but he is also horrified to realize he changed her forever, and can't undo what he did.

I heard it might be about killing someone by electrocuting them in a bathtub, hence the title of the song

Cover art for Digital Bath lyrics by Deftones

The want of "seeing like their eyes do" couldn't just be lust and infatuation. If I had a little crush on somebody I wouldn't go as far as wanting to know what goes on in their minds, and feeling like more. Id wanna do 'em and move on! thats infatuation and lust. that imperminent WANT of someone. I dont know about all that stuff about dropping stuff in the bath and the dreams and the drunk puking. its just a beautiful song. and when i listen to it i think of it as loving someone so much that they change how you think about yourself. That you feel like MORE then nothing because of them.

I always thought that "Cord breakaway" line was a refernce to the birth of his child ie umbilical cord...
