Loop
LFO vs. F.U.S.E. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Time from empty hands
Attention from empty ears
Caught in a loop
Drink an empty cup
Cast from the main group
To be freed from the leash
Running to a stop
Running on the beach
Grim moments of life
A slave of success
Taking on stride
The life already spent
Caught in a loop
Drink an empty cup
Cast from the main group
Into the void of runes
Hoping against hope
To be freed from the leash
Running to a stop
Running on the beach
Loneliness my friend
No link to outsiders
Following no trend
Scaping from raiders
Grim moments of life
A slave of success
Taking on stride
The life already spent
Caught in a loop
Drink an empty cup
Cast from the main group
Into the void of runes
Hoping against hope
To be freed from the leash
Running to a stop
Running on the beach
Grim moments of life
A slave of success
Taking on stride
The life already spent
Caught in a loop
Drink an empty cup
Cast from the main group
Into the void of runes
Hoping against hope
To be freed from the leash
Running to a stop
Running on the beach
Caught in a loop
Drink an empty cup
Cast from the main group
Into the void of runes
Hoping against hope
To be freed from the leash
Running to a stop
Running on the beach
The lyrics of "Loop" describe the feeling of being trapped in a monotonous, repetitive cycle, hoping for a way out. The opening lines convey a sense of despair and resignation: "Hoping against hope, time from empty hands, attention from empty ears." Despite the singer's efforts, they feel stuck and powerless, unable to break free from their situation. The repeated refrain of "Caught in a loop, drink an empty cup, cast from the main group" emphasizes the theme of ennui and disconnection. The use of the metaphor of a leash and the imagery of running on the beach suggest a desire for freedom and escape, but also a sense of futility and exhaustion.
The second half of the song highlights the singer's isolation and loneliness: "Loneliness my friend, no link to outsiders, following no trend, escaping from raiders." These lines suggest that the singer has chosen to reject societal norms and expectations, but the cost of that choice is a sense of isolation and detachment from others. The final repetition of the refrain underlines the cyclical nature of the singer's predicament: "Caught in a loop, drink an empty cup, cast from the main group, into the void of runes. Hoping against hope, to be freed from the leash, running to a stop, running on the beach."
Overall, the lyrics of "Loop" paint a picture of a person who is stuck in a repetitive, unfulfilling cycle and struggling to find a way out. The use of metaphors and imagery evoke a sense of alienation and disconnection from society and the world at large.
