| Common Rider – Insurgents Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I agree I just listened to this song and before I even read your post I though, "this is a powerful song." One of the more powerful of the common rider's...it kind of has that op ivy sound to it..in fact the whole four songs on the album have more of an op ivy sound then the rest of the common rider stuff. I think it is talking about the social gap in society "Now there's a canyon sized gap between the winners and the ones in the cold"....and he doesn't know where to fit in society...where his place is, and so he finds himself "wandering outside the walls" The insurgents refer to the people trying to shape everything to be the same or the powerful ones and "don't you know this world is ours" may refer to him wanting to take back this power and give it to the individual. That is just my outlook on the meaning of it...so it could be somewhat right, or totally wrong | |
