Smashing The Opponent
Infected Mushroom Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I can't believe it's true
Smashing the opponent
Was not my intention to do
Nether did you
Foresee such an outcome
To this unnecessary ending
I wish I could retrace all my steps
With you
x2
I wanted to say
You shouldn't suffer this way
I wanted to say
I hope I can take it away
Tempt me again and I will forget the truth
Backing your decision
Was something I neglected to do
Even for you
If you feel rage… To strike me with revenge
I will be standing right here
Waiting without fear
For you
x6
I wanted to say
You shouldn't suffer this way
I wanted to say
I hope I can take it away
The lyrics of Infected Mushroom's "Smashing The Opponent" explore the theme of regret over the consequences of one's actions. The first verse talks about someone getting smacked and not being able to believe it's happening, and how they never intended to "smash the opponent." The word "opponent" seems to be metaphorical here for either a physical opponent or something more abstract like a life circumstance or a painful emotion. The singer and the opponent didn't foresee that things would end up the way they did, with unnecessary suffering and regret. The singer wishes they could go back and undo their mistakes.
In the second verse, the lyrics shift to the second person, addressing the opponent directly. The singer acknowledges that they should not be made to suffer, and regrets not doing something to back up the opponent's decision. The line "Tempt me again and I will forget the truth" suggests that there may have been some temptation or distraction involved that led to the situation. The chorus repeats the singer's desire to take away the opponent's suffering, and implies that the singer is willing to face the opponent's anger and revenge without fear.

Smack me again
If you hit me again
And I can't believe it's true
I won't be able to believe if you actually hit me again
Smashing the opponent
Winning a confrontation against an adversary
Was not my intention to do
That was not what I intended to achieve
Nether did you
And you also didn't intend to achieve that
Foresee such an outcome
Had no idea that it would result in such an outcome
To this unnecessary ending
To this unwanted conclusion
I wish I could retrace all my steps
I want to go back and fix things
And erase my mistakes
Undo my errors
With you
Together with you
I wanted to say
I wanted to express
You shouldn't suffer this way
You shouldn't be going through this pain
I hope I can take it away
I hope I can make it better for you
Tempt me again and I will forget the truth
If you provoke me again, I might not remember the reality
Backing your decision
Supporting your choice
Was something I neglected to do
It's something I overlooked
Even for you
Even though it was important to you
If you feel rage… To strike me with revenge
If you are angry enough to retaliate against me
I will be standing right here
I'll be waiting here
Waiting without fear
I won't be afraid
For you
I'll wait for you

@balob
i don't care that their style has changed, because I know their live shows are still going to be insane like they've always been
@JC-xq1wg
They change the style every album and sometimes inside of the same album so I don´t see how can that be a problem for any fan
@MultiHotFlash
Remind me in a few years.
@TheAlison1456

Just seen them live 14years after this comment and the show was awesome. Was like a metal show and a rave together!
@balob
@@joshualawlis3078 omg that was 14 years ago for me now. I stopped going when it got really dubsteppy. I hate dubstep in general so, couldnt stand it. Glad to hear you enjoyed the new show.
