The Warning
Out Out Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Signal goes up
Alert flares are lit
The sirens and lights
No silence tonight
We've readied the men
All set to defend
All ready to fight
No silence tonight

Cycles and systems
Rhythms and patterns
No actions irrelevant
Deposited and worthless
I've extracted data
No finding consistent
To actions irrelevant
Deposited and worthless

All systems are on
Full loaded and armed
The broadcast begins
No silence can win
One nation's distrust
No planets unite
We're told when to go
No silence tonight

Defensive attack
No victim can fight
No room left for doubt
No silence tonight
No time left to waste
All energy spent
Defenses are down
All silence tonight





All for none and none for all

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Out Out's song "The Warning" depict a sense of urgency and readiness to defend oneself against an impending threat. The use of words such as "signal," "alert," and "sirens" create a heightened sense of tension and danger. The repeated phrase "no silence tonight" emphasizes the idea that this is not a time for calm or quiet, but rather a time for action and preparation.


The second verse of the song shifts to a more introspective tone, with the singer reflecting on the importance of analyzing data and making strategic decisions. The line "no finding consistent" suggests that despite efforts to make sense of the situation, there is still uncertainty and confusion. The repetition of the phrase "actions irrelevant, deposited and worthless" further emphasizes this feeling of helplessness and frustration.


Overall, "The Warning" is a powerful and unsettling song about the need to be prepared for unexpected challenges and to take action in the face of uncertainty.

@DaveRod76

Every band they covered needs to invite them on. After all, The Warning is no doubt introducing them to a new generation, and possibly to new audiences all over Latin America, in addition to their fan base.
