This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
All along the water's edge
The ripples curl and bend
As the moon bleeds
"Satire's no match for a matter of fact." (That's blasphemy)
There's got to be another way
I wrote it down in blood
"Never forget my love"
Faith as endearing as the other side
Before nightfall cast a broken shadow much
Too tall "Look, it's just me"
Graveyard pulls apart the earth revealing
All the broken hearts
I'm not the only one who bleeds
I Wrote it down in blood
Never forget my love
Faith as endearing as the other side
I'm on this freight train with creeping suspicion,
hell to pay
(glassy eyeballs feeling red, painful voices in your head)
And he walked to the stone to engrave
His claim of a thousand souls filled
With shame reaching to the highest
Notch at the top
With the blood of his wisdom he began
To call on the names of
The vain and the week willed alike
"I will have you"
Anoint you wrap you in lies, to
Devour you all in the blink of an eye in the presence
Of his majesty
The rise and fall of the hands that begat the
Writing on the wall dripping with
Blood "never forget my love"
It's criminal, more than you know
The loss in your eyes
It's critical
It's critical now
The look in my eye
I have damned myself
To hear this out
One more time around
I have damned myself
To hear this out
One more time
I wrote it down in blood
Never forget my love
Faith as endearing as the other side
I'm on this freight train with derailed suspicions
Writing it all down in blood
The ripples curl and bend
As the moon bleeds
"Satire's no match for a matter of fact." (That's blasphemy)
There's got to be another way
I wrote it down in blood
"Never forget my love"
Faith as endearing as the other side
Before nightfall cast a broken shadow much
Too tall "Look, it's just me"
Graveyard pulls apart the earth revealing
All the broken hearts
I'm not the only one who bleeds
I Wrote it down in blood
Never forget my love
Faith as endearing as the other side
I'm on this freight train with creeping suspicion,
hell to pay
(glassy eyeballs feeling red, painful voices in your head)
And he walked to the stone to engrave
His claim of a thousand souls filled
With shame reaching to the highest
Notch at the top
With the blood of his wisdom he began
To call on the names of
The vain and the week willed alike
"I will have you"
Anoint you wrap you in lies, to
Devour you all in the blink of an eye in the presence
Of his majesty
The rise and fall of the hands that begat the
Writing on the wall dripping with
Blood "never forget my love"
It's criminal, more than you know
The loss in your eyes
It's critical
It's critical now
The look in my eye
I have damned myself
To hear this out
One more time around
I have damned myself
To hear this out
One more time
I wrote it down in blood
Never forget my love
Faith as endearing as the other side
I'm on this freight train with derailed suspicions
Writing it all down in blood

No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

i've tripped many many times on mushrooms and have done extensive research on it. yes, you do learn, no your not trying to make sense of illusions. as for the kid who said "no real knowledge can be found" that was probably the most ignorant statement i've heard. mushrooms are different from drugs in that other drugs can be recreated in the body through dopemine, seratonin, adrenaline, etc., but mushrooms(psilocybin/psylocin) are a completely new chemical entering the body, opening receptors of the brain that have never been used before. scientific research clearly points to far more of the brain being used than the usual %10 that humans use. ancient religions have used mushrooms for 1000s of years to help understand the universe and their place in life. i hope that clears things up, "dude"
