Futurism

Muse

Ignorance pulls
Apostasy and apathy still rules
Yeah, you know it's cool
Just suck and see
A future turn us into silent gods
And I won't miss you at all

Grounded
Boxed in
Like the evil in your veins
Grounded
Boxed in
I am stuck with you

Fate can't decide
Alignment of the planets in your hands
Come on, crush our plans
Just suck and see
A future that won't let you disagree
And I won't miss you at all

Grounded
Boxed in
Like the evil in your veins
Grounded
Boxed in
I am stuck with you

Feel it, hear it, apathy, you are
See it, be it, you'll see

    General CommentFuturism - A belief that the meaning of life and one's personal fulfillment lie in the future and not in the present or past.
    Maybe this is Matt writing about how he has abandoned the christian faith, and saying about how it is so restraining and worthless, and that he can acheive a final heavenly state without putting himself under this restraint. Maybe I'm thinking too deeply... or not deep enough.

    General CommentThese lyrics are incorrect.

    Come wait and see = Just suck and see
    Like the evil in your head = Like the evil in your veins
    Just wait and see = Just suck and see (again, come on, that's the clearest lyric in the song!)
    Feeling feeling everything = Feel it, hear it, apathy
    Feeling feeling everything = See it, be it, you'll see

    Those are taken from Musewiki, and I believe them to be pretty accurate.

    General CommentHow you make your own future. That you don't have to be controlled by a religion in the present.

    General CommentBeing brilliant and being stuck with the mediocre - at least for the time being. Knowing you deserve more but unable to get it. Biding your time to escape with a bang.

    General Commentapparently matt's singing about a "possible dystopian future" where their is a totalitarian state where your thoughts are controlled and stuff, kinda 1984 type stuff. i love it. Also, the lyric is actually "like the evil in your veins", its my favourite bit

    General CommentIs it just me, or does this song heavily conjure up images of robots working on an assembly line?
