   It reminds me of home and why I left iowa. I am from sioux city and I couldn't take how dark and heavy it was there.

   515 is the area code for Des Moines, Iowa. Sid is the vocals in this, he is basically screaming/crying into the mic because of his grandfather passing away so he had to let it out.

   This song has been recently reveiled on the 10 anniversary iowa album, the looped screams on this song was sid (bandmember who was having an emotional breakdown over the death of his grandpa, he was meant to see him after the album finished, but the other members made him stay to edit some tracks. His grandpa then died and he lost it completely, he was so overwhelmed by pain, rage and sadness.

   It was Sid, Someone in his family was dying, and he was trying to finish his side of the recording so he could go back to Des Moines and see him! Unfortunately he died while Sid was still recording and he asked Paul and Clown to sing people = Shit with him, they went to the studio and he started singing, Then he broke down half way through, they played it backward and put it on the album! 515 is the area codes for Des Moines!

   None for this song really. I do think, however it is explaining the anger and hate that Corey and the other band members felt for each other during the album. Because during an interview, members of the band said that the Iowa album was the bands "darkest" time.

   This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway
