New Born

I'm fairly sure that this song is about the internet. Mainly because I read it in an interview :0) Matt is fairly geeky so it's quite possible. The 'New Born' is the internet itself and the song discusses how young but powerful it is already.

The video kinda presents this theme too - the little girl could be considered a personification of the internet.

I don't think its about an antichrist. I think its about built up anger and how one day you must release that anger. Only once you have relased this anger can you get away from the pain and be new born.

innocence is being taken away...and 'growing like a new born'

This song is obviously about Star Wars. It describes the birth of Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia and the soulless world that they are born into due to the rise of the Empire.

this is my favourite muse song, it has evertything: a great organ intro, it sounds really scary!!! then a master bass riff and the drums and the voice...... really cool!! i think it´s about a kind of a future antichrist, it´s very related with the video!

this is their best song live, so much energy, i dont think its about the antichrist though, its just about rocking out. That and jaded love, maybe?

I guess I don't really see the whole future and anarchist part to this song like some have said, I think it is more talking about someone who is angry and unable to express their anger to the world, forcing it to swell inside of them. I think he is inferring that the person's anger came from when he or she was young and first began to witness all of the evil in the world, and the narrator is trying to convince this person to let out her feelings of anger and hate because it is eating at their relationship and he is "drifting away" from her.

I think it could be about abortion... "destroy the spineless." in the beginning when it "iink it to the world, link it to yourself" it could mean fertilizing the eggs in the womb. "too young, young." could also mean abortion.

WELLLL! this song is aweesoommmeeee OHHHH :D actually i seriously thought this was about God "the bitterness inside/is growing like a newborn" i thought that meant how like God was getting fed up with humanity and how you know...we're all assholes now -_- "when you've seen too much too young" like how God has always been here n existing and he's seen alot of craziness from the start "the distance to your home fades away to nowhere" heaaveennn??far in the skyyy to nowhere??? "you can't come down to earth.your swelling up your unstoppable" He is unstoppable "destroy the spineless show me its real" i thought they were like trying to tell God to prove to them he's real and that he's there "just break the silence cuz i'm drifting away from you" although i've heard that matt's atheist, i thought he was requesting God to reveal himself because he's getting rid of the small belief that He could be real and he's drifting away from him....i dont think the last part made sense but hey.i think its about God yo!

Sparks meets queen meets bowie etc..what a great combination of rock opera dynamics and drama! If you dont like this then, I'm afraid, you dont like music. p.s.Can you put Flamin' Lips on your data base please? They're brilliant.
