| Modest Mouse – Satin in a Coffin Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
It's clearly about how society is following a path to it's own destruction. A clear example would be; "Now the blow's been softened, since the air we breathe's our coffin Well now the blow's been softened, since the ocean is our coffin Often times you know our laughter is our coffin ever after And you know the blow's been softened, since the world is our coffin And now the blow's been softened, since we are our own damn coffins" That whole bit makes it obviously clear. |

| Modest Mouse – The Fruit That Ate Itself Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This is clearly about how society is following the wrong path. "Take a drive in the wrong hand lane" It portrays the whole idea of mankind being the creator of it's own demise. With technology and machines. "well we taught the fruit how to eat itself" nad "we taught the mirror how to admire itself" clearly portray that. If you can't catch that well, be prepared to be you're own destruction. |
