Plug In Baby
Muse/Florio Lyrics

The lyrics to Muse/Florio's song "Plug In Baby" are open to interpretation, but there are a few ways we can approach them. On one level, the singer seems to have uncovered some lies from their lover and wants to change everything to forget about their love. But as the song progresses, the imagery becomes more fantastical and surreal. The singer talks about their "plug in baby," which seems to be some kind of technological or futuristic entity that crucifies enemies and lives in "unbroken virgin realities."

Perhaps the "plug in baby" represents the singer's ability to escape their struggles and aggression through technology. They can channel their frustrations and exhaustion into this digital creation, which becomes a refuge from the messiness of human emotions. The line "Don't confuse, baby you're gonna lose, your own game" suggests that the singer is trying to disconnect from their romantic entanglements and focus on this alternative reality. The repetition of "tired of living" also underscores the sense of weariness and need for escape.

Ultimately, the closing line "And I've seen your loving, mine is gone" suggests that the singer has rejected their partner's affection and found solace in the "plug in baby" instead. It's a bleak and nihilistic vision of love and technology, but also a powerful one.
