Rogues
Incubus污 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the present in my pocket, just in case I need a door
Into a brave new world where all solutions
End up with my head buried to my neck in sand
Enough, enough
Bowing down to disillusion
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected, you're not paying attention
It?s too good, too good, not to have an effect
I'm keeping an eye on the pulse, an ear to the track
And penance in a locket, dropping from the highest floor
When it hits ground I watch it smash to pieces
Songs of liberation echo from the dust, the dust
Enough
Bowing down to disillusion
Hats off and applause to rogues and evolution
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected, you're not paying attention
It?s too good, too good, not to have an effect
Enough, enough, enough, enough, enough
Enough, enough, enough, enough, enough
Bowing down to disillusion
Hats off and applause to rogues and revolution
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected, you're not paying attention
It?s too good, too good, too good, yeah
The lyrics to "Rogues" by Incubus touch on several themes, including the dangers of both looking too much to the future or the past, the importance of paying attention to the world around us, and the power of revolution and rebellion.
The first verse sets up the idea of the singer being prepared for any situation with "the present in my pocket, just in case I need a door/Into a brave new world where all solutions/End up with my head buried to my neck in sand." This suggests that the singer is cautious about blindly following any new solution or idea that may seem like progress, but instead wants to be ready to analyze and consider all options.
The chorus then praises "rogues and evolution," suggesting that sometimes deviating from the norm and challenging the status quo can lead to positive change. The singer also emphasizes the importance of paying attention to the ripple effect of actions - if we don't consider how our actions affect others, we are not truly paying attention to the world around us.
The second verse continues this theme, with the singer keeping an eye on the pulse and the track, indicating an awareness of the present moment and the direction of society. The idea of "songs of liberation echo[ing] from the dust" could be interpreted as a reference to the power of protest and rebellion to effect change.
Overall, "Rogues" by Incubus is a thought-provoking song about the importance of paying attention to the world around us and the potential for positive change through rebellion and evolution.
