Infrared Lyrics
From facing the numbers who
Crash in an empty room?
False visions we search
And reflections consume
But the mirror is everyone's tomb
Self-hating days in the image maze
Losing sight of our roots in the empty shells
Where everyone fights themselves
Everyone fights themselves
I get so tired of waiting, tired of waiting
Outside, and watch the good life in the window
Blank eyes, I get so tired of waiting, tired of waiting
Outside, another answer for our crimes
To find the truth in everything rejected
And I get so tired of waiting, tired of waiting
Another day between the lines
We fight the war inside us
Turning answers into questions
Through all this vanity we'll fight 'til soul rebuild
Fools gold, what we've had
The symptoms of a world gone mad
Children's lives spent sewing up our cheap disguise
Losing sight of out roots in the cathode rays
Amnesia for the end of our days
Amnesia for the end of our days
I get so tired of waiting, tired of waiting
Outside, until it's nothing special
Blank eyes, I get so tired of waiting, tired of waiting
Outside, another answer for our crimes
To find the truth in everything rejected
And I get so tired of waiting, tired of waiting
Another day between the lines
We're all gone dead, what we reject
We're all gone dead, what we reject
Wake up everyone
Outside, here I am
Blank eyes, tired of waiting, tired of wasting all away
Outside, here I am

I think this song is about globalization, mostly because the music video was. correct me if im wrong

this music is about how ppl are so obsesed with there image. And how ppl try to cover up who they actully are with fancy clothing and stuff

ya agree with ya, and i think beyond that it talks about how lame fashion obsessed people cant even fool themselves... 'the mirror is everyones tomb'

I dunno i'd have to say this is my favorite.

y so few comments? this song is amazing

definately about the big cover up under corporate shit - an exceptional song

I hate this song... infact I hate all of dead fm, i think it's terrible compared to their older stuff.

shit wrong song....

"losing sights of our roots in the cathode rays" love it, I don't exactly know what the artist meant by that line but I interpret it rather profoundly. A cathode ray was a set-up used by JJ Thompson when he discovered the existence and properties of electrons. The first solid evidence of the existence of subatomic particles. So, thanks to the cathode tube and its revelation, we were able to delve in much deeper into the science of chemistry. So within the cathode ray, we lost vision of what is really important in life, the real challenges we as the human race face. more later, gotta run!
So, I've found the cathode ray reference to be more blatant, I must have been overanalyzing. Cathode Ray Tubes (CRT's) are employed into your traditional televisions.
So the reference is therefore speaking of how many hitch themselves to unreality in their living rooms.
Lesson of the day from Strike Anywhere: fuck television.

This song is about media consolidation as said by Mr Barnett himself the last 2 nights
