Tone, how you define the way a song is, somewhat like mood. Its how one would describe a song or story. But for Tools "schism" the tome could be called a reflective sorrow. The reason behind this is the synecdoche, sorrowful imagery, and an uplifting yet sad narrative.
Schism comes to play when synecdoche is heard, not that its ever rarely used. But a synecdoche is when a term is used to refer to the whole thing. And schism means to break or clash, which this song is about, breaking up in relationships. But not just the name of the song, but "I know the pieces fit" could be used for this as well. Both the lyrics and schism can be used because the songs about breaking up, yet the singer knows that if they were together once then they can get back together again. So in a sense, this song is about the hope of two getting back together once again.
The song displays a sorrowful imagery. "Mildewed and smoldering. Fundamental differing. Pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion disintegrating as it goes testing our communication. The light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so we cannot seem to reach an end crippling our communication." This talks about how everything around them is "crippling" their communication. And not to mention all of this is disgusting, maybe its to show the way he thinks his girlfriend thought of the relationship. And how that's what was happening to them. The song also goes onto say "Testing our communication" which might be because of how life is throwing all this at them, to see if the relationship can handle it. And unfortunately his girlfriend couldn't or just wouldn't.
And finally, an uplifting yet sad narrative, or story. "Cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion between supposed lovers, between supposed brothers. I know the pieces fit" The song ends with the singer saying "I know the pieces fit" for about eight or so times. In a way its to beat into the listeners head that he knows if it worked out once it can work out again. So even though this song is sad and depressing once you really listen to it, the singer tells that there is a way to get them back. All you have to do is try and try, because if you really love someone someone then there shouldn't be anything stopping you. That's why its uplifting, if the singer can believe so, then so can anyone else. You just need to pull yourself together and get out there again and try.
And so that's the tune for Tools "Schism". Its split into three halves to really get it into the brains. This sadistic uplifting song should be listened to more often, especially if a relationship is broken up and someone wants to get back to together with the other person. And also Tool is a great band and there's always a new story to be told in their songs. So go listen to Tool and of course, this song.

Two songs that sounds almost the exact same are AC/DECs "TNT" and Lou Gramms "Arrow through your heart". AC/DC came out with the song first which would lead people to think that Lou Gramm copied them and used the beginning of the song in his. So the next time you listen to these songs, pay attention to the beginnings and you'll notice they sound the same.

Two songs that sound similar but may not be copy righted are Star Wars's "imperial march" and Mary Poppins "Spoon full of sugar". It transitions from instrument to voice with the high point of the imperial march going with the chorus of a spoon full of sugar when she says "A spoon full of sugar makes the medicine go down."
