Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Crystal Castles's song Untrust Us are quite straightforward and to-the-point. The song's chorus simply states that cocaine is not good for one's health, with the repeated phrase "la cocaina no es buena para su salud" followed by "cocaine is not good for you." The song's fast-paced electronic beat and repetitive lyrics create a sense of urgency, warning listeners about the dangers of drug use.


In addition to the obvious anti-drug message, some interpret the lyrics as a critique of society's tendency to embrace drugs as a form of escape, rather than addressing the root causes of social problems. The line "untrust us" could be seen as a warning against the seductive powers of addictive substances, which can ultimately lead to personal and societal harm.


Interestingly, the song's title "Untrust Us" is a nod to a quote from the sci-fi movie Blade Runner. In the film, the character Roy Batty delivers the line "untrustworthy DNA samples. Don't trust them." The band has stated that Blade Runner is a major influence on their music and visual style.

I haven't seen anyone mention it yet, but please support Alice, not the band. They replaced her after she was sexually abused and groomed by a fellow band member.

Edward Young It made it hard even listening to the music anymore after I found that out 😞 Heartbroken for her, I hope she is ok. Fuck that guy, and the rest for not standing with her.
