Conspiracy
Din Fiv Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Acid rain
Change the channel
Kill the pain
We are fed lies
We believe
Who's deceiver?
There's no conspiracy
There's only you and me
The real conspiracy
Is our stupidity
Rock of ages
Patron saints
Fools and sages
One remains
Blind to follow
Deaf to lead
Quick to swallow
Slow to bleed
The song Conspiracy by Din Fiv is a critique of human behavior in the face of global issues such as war, famine, and acid rain. The lyrics suggest that people are fed lies by those in power but are complicit in their own ignorance by accepting these lies as truth. The question of who is the deceiver and who is deceived is left unanswered, as the song implies that individuals share responsibility for perpetuating falsehoods. The chorus confirms this implication, stating that there is no grand conspiracy at work, but only the stupidity of humanity. The final verse juxtaposes the so-called "rock of ages" and "patron saints" that some people turn to in times of crisis with the "fools and sages" that others dismiss. The song concludes by acknowledging the danger of blindly following leaders and being slow to shed blood.
In summary, Conspiracy is a powerful commentary on the ways in which society can become complacent and complicit in tragedies of global proportions. The song urges listeners to question authority, seek truth, and be wary of accepting lies as fact.
