Strange World
M.I.K.E. Presents Push Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is this our last chance to say all we have to say?
Hiding here inside ourselves, we live our lives afraid
so close your eyes and just believe in everything you’re told
Cause in this land of great confusion, it’s easy to give up control

Strange world, people talk and tell only lies
Strange world, people kill an eye for an eye
Strange world, dream one day we’ll see the light
Strange world, believe and everything will be alright

And this is the place everything begins and ends again
No secrets left to find, no seven deadly sins
This world that we have wasted, has kept us very well
When science now is sacred, who will save us from ourselves?

Strange world, people talk and tell only lies
Strange world, people kill an eye for an eye
Strange world, dream one day we’ll see the light
Strange world, believe and everything will be alright

Strange world, people talk, sometimes I wonder why
Strange world, ṗeople kill, still no one hears their cries

Strange world, people talk and tell only lies
Strange world, people kill an eye for an eye
Strange world, dream one day we’ll see the light
Strange world, believe and everything will be alright




Burn these thoughtless tears out of my eyes
Still I wonder, wonder why

The lyrics try to convey that we must take control of our lives and not be afraid to be different as we live in a strange world where people talk and tell only lies.

The song suggests that science has become sacred and we have gone too far in our attempts to control the world.

Line by Line Meaning

Is this our last chance to say all we have to say?
Are we running out of time to express ourselves fully?


Hiding here inside ourselves, we live our lives afraid
Living in fear, we retreat to the safety of our own internal worlds


so close your eyes and just believe in everything you’re told
Blindly accepting fabricated truths to escape the uncertainty of reality


Cause in this land of great confusion, it’s easy to give up control
In a world of constant ambiguity, relinquishing control is the effortless choice


Strange world, people talk and tell only lies
The world is a strange place where falsehoods often reign supreme


Strange world, people kill an eye for an eye
A world where vengeance is sought with violent eye-for-an-eye retaliation


Strange world, dream one day we’ll see the light
The dream of a day where truth and compassion will finally triumph


Strange world, believe and everything will be alright
Finding solace and security in blindly held beliefs and ideologies


And this is the place everything begins and ends again
This world is where everything originates and ultimately concludes


No secrets left to find, no seven deadly sins
All is revealed and no moral transgressions remain hidden


This world that we have wasted, has kept us very well
Despite our squandering of this world, we continue to survive within it nonetheless


When science now is sacred, who will save us from ourselves?
Even if we revere science, who will protect us from our own destructive nature?


Burn these thoughtless tears out of my eyes
Eradicate these meaningless tears streaming down my face


Still I wonder, wonder why
Nevertheless, I ponder the reason behind it all
