agreed with demon of the fall.

if any of you guys are doing journey's for english, this is a ripper of a supplementary text.

i believe it is set in the future, when government deceit for control has become even more fucked up than it is today.

As cog is (or has recently become) a band based around propagandist ideas, i believe this song targets the government and its corruption of politics to control a population.

It confronts the idea of venturing to the new aswell, with the source being symbolic of the truth, discovery and self realisation, put on a pedestal by the government naming it the forbidden zone.

the chorus sums up his internal debates, wondering if he should venture free and strive for individuality, or just fit in like the rest of them.

i reckon a lot of this song can be applied to the common day beliefs, exploring the deeper idea of taking risks, and living life to the full and not living in the shadow of self doubt.

i love cog.

I made an account so i could upvote you. Love cog!!
