Movie Theme

So the first song since I started this song that I have never heard of. I've never been a big Beck fan so i guess that would be no surprise. Read the lyrics and on first glance... they make completely no sense to me. Beck would be offended I am sure. Maybe I don't get the song, but I didn't like it very much. Actually I ended up giving it a thumbs down at the end of the song. But I'll still try and see what I can nab from it. Are his verses implying that maybe these could all be possible movie themes? It might be a weird ass movie then. Maybe someone will read this and interpret the song for me. Beck has always been known for being weird though. Okay, let's give this a shot. First verse: he wants to die and go to heaven. Second verse: He is almost near death and he clenches his heart in anticipation. Third verses: Trying to find basic things in daily life to make him forget. Fourth verse: Someone is coming to stop him from killing himself (RIP DJ AM). Fifth verse: gluttony and greed and pride of the things in the world. He buys what he can. Sixth verse: looking at the oceans below and wondering whether to jump. Okay, maybe it's my interpretation but is he suicidal or something? Seventh verse: He is not afraid of death, but he knows suicide is wrong. Eighth verse: Music will save him. Deep.
