Fields Of Locust Lyrics

You’re blind
Blind by your fog
And you think it supports you
It seems to support you
But it will disappear
At the first strong wind




Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Fields of Locust's song Fog describe a person who is blinded by their own narrow-mindedness or ignorance. They are immersed in a "fog" and believe it is supporting them, protecting them. However, the singer warns that this "fog" will eventually disappear, leaving the person exposed and vulnerable to the "first strong wind." This could be interpreted as a metaphor for someone who has built their life and beliefs on shaky foundations, and who is not prepared for anything that challenges those beliefs.


The use of the term "fog" is interesting because it creates a sense of ambiguity. Fog can be seen as either a positive or negative thing in various contexts. It can create a sense of mystery or wonder, or it can be seen as a hazard, obscuring vision and making it difficult to navigate. In this song, the fog is portrayed as a negative thing, something that is misleading and ultimately destructive. Another interesting aspect of the lyrics is the sense of inevitability conveyed by the line, "It will disappear." This creates a feeling of tension and anticipation, as the listener waits for the moment when the fog will clear.
