Set It Off

i wasnt a huge fan of rufio's first cd, but their new EP is badass...this song and Dont Hate Me especially (too bad it is only 3 songs)

...this is exactly what me and my girlfriend are going through right now... this song is basically about a couple that has to put up with all the bull that other people have to say about them being together. With the things said by other people...their fidelity is questioned, and they have to stay strong while others try to tear them apart. In order to go on, they must have in faith in each other and ignore the things that others have to say. In the end, they show everyone that they belong together...

Well yea...i dunno...thats my interpretation... late

I'm not really sure what this song means! When I first heard it I thought about all the crap that's going on in the world right now with terrorism and war and stuff, but I still don't really know. ?? It's awesome tho!

What i think this song about is, a couple that are cheating, or neglecting eachother arguing and everything.

And basicly like in the first phrase

"One day they set it off Blowing confusion into our minds Some say we'll never see The beauty within our hearts "

They are being pressured to leave eachother... but,..

"So help us fight this war See past your thoughts before We're all taking battle scars Just dont't you go.... "

This basicly is saying that they don't want to go, and that they will fight for eachother, and try to maintain together, and that they will use the past as an example.

And then the rest of the song would be the whole "We can make it," "no we can't" and yadda yadda yadda :p

"Things never change wihtout the strength to move on. What we will be depends on what we beleive."

words to live by, my friend, words to live by.

dude, u guys r idiots. this song is bout the 9/11 attack. One day they set it off = meanin "they" the iraqi's set it off.

Blowing confusion into our minds = havin us wonder y they did it all of a sudden

Some say we'll never see The beauty within our hearts = this is talkin bout how we'll nvr understand the people heart or somethin.

So help us fight this war = self explanatory

We're all taking battle scars = meanin, evn the people that rn't in the battle field r affected by this emtionally.

Just don't you go = the marines r leavin to war all of a sudden and their family don't want them to leave

Things never change Without the strength to move on = self explanatory

We'll set it off = we will set it off, not the iraqi's.

Leaving your past behind You'll follow your heart = there's nothin u can do bout the past and u hafta think bout the present and the future.

What will we do when all is gone? = askin wat will we do when we lose everyhin from this war and the 9/11 attack.

And what will we say? Will we ever learn? = idk but it means somethin, i just can't explain it.

No...we'll never learn = indescriable

dude different people see different things in different songs calm down.

i agree that its not about a couple at all....its about acceptance and how everyones hatred for one another is gonna end up destroying us all, hence "set it off". to dingleberry, iraq didnt do shit to us on 9/11

alright first of all what the fuck yellowcallister saying iraq didnt do anything to us. go fuck urself. i agree with DINGLEBERRY that its talking about 9/11.

Dingleberry + ledzepp22 = morons

yellowcallister is right. the IRAQIS didn't do shit to us on 9/11. it was bin laden and AFGHANISTAN. learn your damn history.

oh, and i love this song.
