Here’s To Entropy
Closure in Moscow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you feel remorse for your sin?
Even though you helped make the inscription
And I saw the digits rise out of the corner of my eye
Severely out of balance against my favour
All these things are cable tied
To insufficient time!

There's no time to tell a story
There's no time to tell a story
Afraid to reach for something new
When you've torched the curtains before their call

There's no time to tell a story
There's no time to tell a story
(Can you see this right in front of you?)
When you've torched the curtains before their call

Get well acquainted with your ache
Don't look away
Cause and effect will be our tragic end

There's no time to tell a story
There's no time to tell a story
Afraid to reach for something new
When you've torched the curtains before their call

There's no time to tell a story
There's no time to tell a story
(Can you see this right in front of you?)
When you've torched the curtains before their call
WOAHHHHOOHH!

You can't touch me
You're not to know,
You can't touch me
Never again!
You can't touch me




(You can't touch me)
You can't touch me!

Overall Meaning

The song "Here's To Entropy" by Closure in Moscow is a reflection of how life is short and at the same time very chaotic. The lyrics seem to address someone who is remorseful about their actions and seeking forgiveness. The line "Do you feel remorse for your sin? Even though you helped make the inscription" could be interpreted as asking whether the person responsible for things going wrong feels regret about the role they played in bringing about the negative outcome.


The lyrics repeatedly refer to a lack of time and an inability to tell a story. This could be interpreted as feeling that life is moving too fast, and there simply isn't enough time to reflect on events and make sense of them. The repeated line "when you've torched the curtains before their call" seems to suggest that the person addressed in the song has a tendency to act recklessly and has already caused damage before considering the consequences of their actions.


In the final verse, the lyrics advise the listener to get "well-acquainted with their ache" or face the consequences of their actions. This line might be interpreted as a cautionary reminder that there are always consequences to our actions, even when we act impulsively.


Line by Line Meaning

Do you feel remorse for your sin?
Do you feel guilty for your contribution to the mistake?


Even though you helped make the inscription
Despite the fact that you were involved in creating the error


And I saw the digits rise out of the corner of my eye
I noticed the numbers increasing, but only in my peripheral vision


Severely out of balance against my favour
The numbers were significantly against me, not in my favor


All these things are cable tied
All these issues are closely connected


To insufficient time!
Due to not having enough time to fix them


There's no time to tell a story
There is no time to share a detailed explanation


Afraid to reach for something new
Fearful of trying something different


When you've torched the curtains before their call
When you've ruined something before it had a chance to succeed


(Can you see this right in front of you?)
(Are you aware of what's happening right now?)


Get well acquainted with your ache
Become familiar with your pain and struggles


Don't look away
Do not ignore or avoid your problems

The consequences of our actions will ultimately lead to our downfall


You can't touch me
You cannot affect me anymore


You're not to know,
You are not allowed to have that information


Never again!
It will never happen again


(You can't touch me)
(You have no power over me)


You can't touch me!
I am untouchable

I remember seeing this band at warped tour - EXTREMELY underrated. I used to have both their albums constantly on repeat

Timmy Andre

the drumming in this track is just insane

prazflatulence

I have always said the same about this song. The whole Penance ep really

Brett S

Not the original drummer. Beau McKee was fucking insane!!!

Brandon Shaver

Timmy Andre saw them live. The drummer is huge behind the drum kit. Had to be 6'2 or more

Teacher From the Jungles

it's funny to listen to this kind of music thinking "oh finally some fresh air in the room" and you look at when this track was released...

chelsea brewer

I love how animated they are in their videos as well as on stage. This band is amazing and so are their personalities.

Zara Jane

These guys are perfect live, I really need to see them again

Atley Meow

Drummer is really good.. Can tell he makes the drums really a part of the music and not just sound like a drumtrack... Has emotion

Poxneo

one of the smartest moves equalvision has made in a long time is to sign this band. the melbourne local scene is full of amazingly talented bands like this.
