Questions
Incident Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where in the hell are we going?
Where in the hell is here
What is the point of our knowing
Where is the view that is clear
How long does it take to get there
How long ago did we leave
How long is this road in which I stare
How long until we achieve

Whether the weather, block out the sun
Whether the weather bring rain
Whether the weather can weather this fog
Stupid Questions are to blame
Stupid Questions are to blame

Like what is the object of this game
What is the price that we pay
What is the distance of this terrain
What does it take just to play
Why are we going so fast
Why are we in this zone
Why is this cop towing my car
Why can't they leave us alone

Whether the weather, block out the sun
Whether the weather bring rain
Whether the weather can weather this fog
Stupid Questions are to blame
Stupid Questions are to blame

Like who, what, when, where, why, how much
Who, what, when, where, why, etc.

Who the hell here is responsible today
Who the hell here is alive
Who goes and its okay
Who's turn is it to drive
When did I decide to move on
Or when the wind will it be near
When did this engine light go on
When will the tow truck be here

Whether the weather, block out the sun
Whether the weather bring rain
Whether the weather can weather this fog
Stupid Questions are to blame
Stupid Questions are to blame





Like who, what, when, where, why, how much
Who, what, when, where, why.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Incident's song Questions seem to question the very purpose or direction of our lives. The song is essentially about questioning the world around us, and the frustrations and uncertainties that come with it. The lines, “Where in the hell are we going? Where in the hell is here? What is the point of our knowing? Where is the view that is clear?” express the frustration of not knowing where we are headed or what our ultimate purpose is.


The lyric, “Stupid Questions are to blame” is a satirical take on the popular phrase "there are no stupid questions", and implies that some questions indeed have no answers, no matter how much we search for them. The line, “Whether the weather can weather this fog” is also figurative language, perhaps alluding to the idea of overcoming obstacles or difficulties on our journey.


The song is a reflection of the human struggle to find meaning and direction. It explores universal human experiences, like confusion, frustration, and disappointment. It seems to suggest that no matter how much we seek answers, the world can remain an enigma, and we must learn to navigate it with our own intuition and inner compass.
