Adam and Eve Lyrics
Gather around.
Let me tell you about a place where you can dream.
A city built to save you from their altruistic ways.
Colors oh, so bright.
Tell me, tell me, could you ever leave this place?
I built this world to satisfy the desires of the people seeking change,
Yeah, the people seeking change.
You built this city in the depths to shield it from the other men
With intent to steal the dream that I have worked for.
And I won't let them in.
I've had a taste of everything,
And I brought the world down to its knees.
Now all I've worked for is mine.
It's been such a long time since I've brought this world to me.
Have I made a wrong turn, trapped inside this city in the sea?
Yeah, the city in the sea.
You built this city in the depths to shield it from the other men
With intent to steal the dream that I have worked for,
And I won't let them in.
I've had a taste of everything,
And I brought the world down to its knees.
Now all I've worked for is mine.
With one breath of air, taste will linger on your tongue, so breathe deeply.
And I won't let them in.
You built this city in the depths to shield it from the other men
With intent to steal the dream that I have worked for,
And I won't let them in.
I've had a taste of everything,
And I brought the world down to its knees.
Now all I've worked for is mine.
Let me tell you about a place where you can dream.
A city built to save you from their altruistic ways.
Colors oh, so bright.
Tell me, tell me, could you ever leave this place?
I built this world to satisfy the desires of the people seeking change,
Yeah, the people seeking change.
With intent to steal the dream that I have worked for.
And I won't let them in.
I've had a taste of everything,
And I brought the world down to its knees.
Now all I've worked for is mine.
Have I made a wrong turn, trapped inside this city in the sea?
Yeah, the city in the sea.
With intent to steal the dream that I have worked for,
And I won't let them in.
I've had a taste of everything,
And I brought the world down to its knees.
Now all I've worked for is mine.
With intent to steal the dream that I have worked for,
And I won't let them in.
I've had a taste of everything,
And I brought the world down to its knees.
Now all I've worked for is mine.

Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
In my (somewhat biased) opinion, this song is about the 2K Games franchise 'Bioshock', from the point of view of entrepreneur and founder of 'Rapture', Andrew Ryan. Dan (Vallier) seems to be a fan of the franchise, and I believe even quoted BioShock 2 in one of his interviews.
Also (of course), there are various suggestions throughout the song that suggest a correlation: "...city in the depths"
Obviously, this bears various morals and meanings per se, but I'll leave it at that, there's not much to be said. Might be hit-and-miss, or I could be entirely incorrect, but apparently I can say it's "just my personal interpretation" and get off unscathed, so... This is just how I see it. Cool band.
Damn it, forgot to mention the finisher.
Damn it, forgot to mention the finisher.
'ADAM' and 'EVE' are the two 'wonder-chemicals' involved in implementation and utilisation of the unique genetic alterations that become available in Rapture, and eventually become the catalyst and cause of the city's total corruption and end.

Personally spoken to Jill (bassist/vocalist), she confirmed, stating also that "new video will be bio shock influenced!"
