| All songs on the new album are Nine inch nails influenced, although this one is balanced. If the bassline (or guitar) was any more sinister, i'd compare it to koRn, but it's not so i'm comparing it to adema. HA! | |

| I kinda thought Keep yourself in six degrees ment like, six degrees of separation. you know? I know thats probably not how its suppose to be(and not even what six degrees of separation means..) but, your usually bored when your alone, so to stay underjoyed you need to stay away from people? I have no idea what I'm talking about now, soooo, I'll be off. | |

| One of my least favorite JOJ songs. I could do without it. Not too sure what it stands for. I'm always bored, am I underjoyed? Depressed? True, sometimes I feel empty inside, is this why? Maybe the boredom is getting to Jessicka and is driving her mad. She tries everything to make her have fun, but it doesnt work | |

| To me, this song is about bordem being the root of depression, which i believe is true. I've seen so much. I mean i think so many emo kids are depressed, just because their suburban lives are so boring, i know i used to feel like that. I think the song expresses how frustrating bordem is. I can relate to this alot.. "An old friend convinced me that he was underjoyed He never caused friction his ego he destroyed "He made a decision He jumped into the void or maybe.." I think that refers to a friend, maybe committing suicide just out of bordem, or descending into depression. 1 | |

| I can really relate to this song, yesyes. Boredom can really drive you insane, I know from personal experience. (eheh..) This is what I relate this song to... When you’re so bored but there’s nothing, nothing and no one at all: Underjoyed. There’s no “friction” because there’s not even internal conflicts, everything is empty. Agreed scumshine, it’s a form of self-destruction. Scumshinedeary, your name makes my insides smile. It causes you to do things (scumshine is lovely.) such as drugs or cutting because it’s something you can actually feel for once. (Boredom can be like depression in ways and such.) This is one of those things you can’t explain well with words. …eh "keep yourself in 6 degrees" I think trying the get the meaning of that line is kinda overanalyzing. I mean, it rhymes with "no one ever comforts me" I know when I write songs a lot of it is a play of words and making it sound – well – good. Songs can be very vague and just hint at the thought that caused it. (I think I made a complete ass of myself in this.. >_ | |

| underjoyed seems to me like a form of Self Destruction... form unknown. she's bored , being bored makes her want to do things... cutting??? drugs??? its all about the Miss. Self Destruct in it all. and her friend too.. he was underjoyed as well. a companionship.. ahhh what bliss ;) | |

| i absolutely loathed this song first few times i heard it, but it grew on me, simply because i began to relate to it, i hated it because the music was just...pants...too simple soundin etc, like they cudve dun beter, and then it just seemed to fit, like a lil song they made up when they were bored. its great!! also i love the line 'no-one ever comforts me' its sort of a harsh pain in an otherwise cheery-ish feeling song | |
