Exogenesis: SymphonyPt. 2
Muse Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Rise above the crowd, and wade through toxic clouds
Breach the outer sphere
The edge of all our fears
Rest with you
We are counting on you, it's down to you

Spread our codes to the stars
You must rescue us all

Spread our codes to the stars
You must rescue us all

Tell us, tell us your final wish?
Now we know you can never return




Tell us, tell us your final wish?
We will tell it to the world

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song appear to be about a character that is being sent on a crucial mission to save humanity, specifically through communicating with extraterrestrial beings. The first two lines of the lyrics request that the character rise above the crowd and wade through toxic clouds, which can be interpreted as the difficulties surrounding the mission that they are about to embark on. The next two lines mention breaching the outer sphere and the edge of all fears, which might indicate the outer limits of our current understanding of the universe and the trepidation that surrounds the unknown. The next lines express their dependency on the character, who is being singled out as the only hope. They mention spreading codes to the stars, and rescuing the entirety of humanity. The final lines, which are repeated twice, request the character's final wish, implying that they are destined to sacrifice their life in the pursuit of this noble feat.

My favorite part of the Exogenesis, is very dramatic and I love the thoughts and the feelings when I listen "Spread our codes to the stars, you must rescue us all" I get goosebumps everytime and an heroic feeling. Muse makes magic songs :D
