Revival
Orgy feat KoRn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You scavenge find what makes you
Supreme in design
Accuse you 'cause they had the fun
So differently divine
When my mind goes override
It's so typical to capture anonymity
I choose the crowd to divide
so you see I try I cannot ever displace
You see I'm jaded at times from nowhere leaving this place
So you see me die right in front of your face
You see I'm jaded at times from nowhere leaving this place
They made us with a tool
Then they taught us how to live
We met the candyman
He filled us with his contraband
Then they scared us all away
While your visting your bubble of reality
Salivating at the sound of the bells
I'll be seducing you through your confession
They've been the ones you've known forever
Someone's been lied to with all the rage Caught us dismal
at times we've known forever
And so you see I try I cannot ever displace
You see I'm jaded at times from nowhere leaving this place
So you see me die right in front of your face
You see I'm jaded at times from nowhere leaving this place
You've been denied of supervision
Just a test tube life away
How could you make believe that we've grown through circumcision
When it's right here next to me
Friendships change to time
They'd never let us leave
You took your time so too late
Missing what you've never had
I'll be the only one that knows just how we've been abused
And so you see I try I cannot ever displace
You see I'm jaded at times from nowhere leaving this place
So you see me die right in front of your face
You see I'm jaded at times from nowhere leaving this place
"Revival" by Orgy feat KoRn explores themes of alienation, identity, and societal expectations. The lyrics suggest a sense of frustration and disillusionment with the world and how it treats individuals who are different. The song opens by questioning the motives and actions of others, calling them out for striving to be unique and superior while accusing those who are different of being divine. The singer feels like an outsider, trying to find their place in a world that seems to constantly divide and judge.
The second verse highlights the manipulation and control exerted by society. The "tool" mentioned symbolizes the way people are molded and formed, taught how to live by those in power. The candyman represents someone who offers false comfort and pleasure, filling the characters with forbidden knowledge or substances. However, eventually, reality scares everyone away, revealing the truth behind the façade.
The bridge of the song addresses the disconnect between different realities. The singer mocks those who live in their "bubble of reality," finding pleasure in superficial things. Meanwhile, they claim to seduce others through their confessions, suggesting a deeper understanding of the darkness and secrets shared by society. The lines "Someone's been lied to with all the rage" imply that people have been deceived and manipulated for a long time without their awareness.
In the final verse, the song explores the theme of missed opportunities and the consequences of complacency. The singer points out how friendships change over time, with people becoming trapped and unwilling to leave their circumstances. They express frustration at others' reluctance to recognize the abuse they've endured, knowing that they will be the only one who truly understands the extent of their suffering.
Overall, "Revival" delves into themes of societal conformity, manipulation, and the search for personal identity. It challenges the listener to question the status quo and strive for individuality in a world that often rejects it.

So what's with your kind
Why do you act the way you do
You scavenge find what makes you
You search and discover what defines you
Supreme in design
Superior in appearance
Accuse you 'cause they had the fun
They blame you because they are jealous of your enjoyment
So differently divine
Uniquely extraordinary
When my mind goes override
When my thoughts take control
It's so typical to capture anonymity
It's common to disguise oneself
I choose the crowd to divide
I purposefully separate myself from the group
They made us with a tool
They created us with a device
Then they taught us how to live
And then they instructed us on how to exist
We met the candyman
We encountered the seductive tempter
He filled us with his contraband
He gave us forbidden substances
Then they scared us all away
And then they frightened us until we fled
While your visting your bubble of reality
While you remain in your isolated perception of the world
Salivating at the sound of the bells
Excitedly anticipating something enjoyable or significant
I'll be seducing you through your confession
I will entice you by exploiting your vulnerabilities
They've been the ones you've known forever
They are the ones you have been familiar with since the beginning
Someone's been lied to with all the rage
Someone has been deceived aggressively
Caught us dismal at times we've known forever
Exposed our negativity during moments we thought were permanent
You've been denied of supervision
You have been deprived of proper guidance
Just a test tube life away
Just a simulated existence waiting
How could you make believe that we've grown through circumcision
How can you pretend that we have developed through limitation
When it's right here next to me
When the truth is right beside me
Friendships change to time
Friendships evolve over time
They'd never let us leave
They would never allow us to escape
You took your time so too late
You took too long, now it's too late
Missing what you've never had
Longing for something you never experienced
I'll be the only one that knows just how we've been abused
I will be the sole person aware of the extent of our mistreatment

You scavenge

It's so typical to capture anonymity
I choose the crowd to divide ⚔️😉
