Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Mt Eden's song Omen seem to describe that something inevitable or ominous is about to happen. The repetition of the word 'Now' creates a sense of urgency and makes it feel as if the event is happening presently or about to occur. The phrase 'The writings on the wall, it won't go away' suggests that whatever is about to happen is impossible to ignore or escape from.


The next line, 'It's an omen', implies that the situation is not just a mere coincidence, but a sign of something significant to come. The line 'you just run out of automation' suggests that whatever is going to happen will disrupt the norm, and people will no longer be able to continue with their usual routines.


Overall, the song's lyrics create a sense of fear and uncertainty of the future, but at the same time, it implies that it may be a turning point, bringing changes and opportunities for growth.

I feel like I’ve returned to the scene of the crime.

***** There's still plenty of good dubstep, you just have to wade through a ton of bullshit to find it, but it's there. Lots of good stuff on DarkstepWarriror's channel.
