hence the line i broke the breadline, nobody knows now when the pie is to be served you can see a piece was cut out but they dont know who did it. "i broke the breadline, nobody knows" - scott being sneaky and eating up some of the pie before it was served. looks so good to him, now getting thoughts of sneaking a piece without anyone finding out. "it's staring me down, wearing a crown of apathy" - scott looking at the pie from the distance. May sound a little crazy/humurous, but stp has a sense a humor and could be mocking the fact that some of the more popular songs out during the time all had meanings such as jeremy ( suicide ), even flow ( homeless man ) jesus christ pose ( religion, well thought out to be orignally by the public at least ) and scott could be mocking the scene at the time by using his creativeness to write a song about a piece of pie while trying to make it seem of something of importance ( makes sense if you really look at the lyrics lol ) While i still believe in the theory posted above, years back originally i thought Scott was just messing around with us by writing a song that seemingly was ambigious and meaningful while ultimately being about a "piece of pie". Thanks man! out of all the songs that scott has written this one always had me scratching my head the most Just my take on the song, makes sense to me so I always think of it this way. I'll fast alone – after killing his the first enemy, he is tramatized at what has just taken place and needs to be alone

Standing around waiting for the slightest moment to take out a human being that he knows nothing about. You know where to find me – he is “dressed like a clown” in his combat gear. Wearing a crown of apathy – he is looking at his enemy during war, knowing that he is going die if he doesn’t kill the enemy first, and his surivival instincts begin to kick in I broke the breadline, dont wanna know - now that he is back home, he is being asked about his experiences, and he is letting people know you dont ever want to know all the things that took place during the war, as it is very horrendous and brutal I walk the frontline, still got far to go -whenevr he walked the frontline during the war, he is thinking to himself, even if i survive this time, i will be right back in the frontline sometime again in the near future and realized he has a long way home to ever get back home in the US where he can be safe again I broke the breadline, nobody knows - he has returned home from the war after sacrificing his life for his country in the war, yet nobody will ever understand exactly what he went through I believe this song to be about a man who has returned home from war and reaching points of insanity from his experiences from the war ( such as the killings he committed ) Ok this songs lyrics are very cryptic and mysterious and heres my take on the lyrics Robert really has some nice bass runs in this song, so your picking fingers may get a workout. Stone Temple Pilots - 'Sin' From the debut album 'Core' Standard Bass Tuning tabbed by jjhand The acoustic part towards the end has to be the hardest part of the song.
