Sophistructure
Rob Crow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cut the call in their claims
Understand what theyre teach us over
crushing same way
away with face
Driving with
Think you can away
and metal we thank
Throwing the around
Sometimes your hope hasnt drowned
They cut our wings and run
right in our face
tortures him in that place
That isnt something in vain
No one gives it the space
Call it a matter of aim
all the things that you hate
They should do a thing about you
They should do a thing about you
They should do a thing about you
They should do a thing about you
Up under your I know when you .
We are swimming in the
holding down
exampled more how it loves
and metal we thank
becoming this
Throwing the around
Sometimes your hope hasnt drowned.
The lyrics of Rob Crow's song Sophistructure seem to be quite surreal, and are likely open to interpretation. The repetition of phrases and words, such as "they should do a thing about you" and "and metal we thank becoming this," add to the dream-like quality of the song, making it difficult to pinpoint a specific meaning. However, certain themes seem to emerge from the lyrics, such as the loss of hope, the influence of models and structures, and the feeling of being trapped or held down.
The line "cut the call in their claims" could refer to the way that people in positions of power or influence attempt to silence those who challenge their claims, or it could be a metaphor for breaking free from the constraints of societal expectations. The line "driving with think you can away" seems to reflect a feeling of being in motion, but not necessarily moving forward, and perhaps the desire to escape or break free.
The repetition of "they should do a thing about you" seems to be critical of the judgments or expectations placed upon the singer, suggesting they are being unfairly judged or misunderstood. The lines "no one gives it the space/ call it a matter of aim/ all the things that you hate" may suggest that the singer feels alone or isolated in their struggles, and that the things they dislike or find oppressive are pervasive and difficult to escape.
Overall, the song seems to be a reflection on the difficulties of navigating a complex and often oppressive world. The use of surreal and ambiguous language adds to the sense of confusion and uncertainty, but also allows for multiple interpretations and meanings.

That's the thing with things of models and can
Get the rest caught in their graves
And that's the book that teaches Sophistructure
Can almost taste their sunken pains
Crashing and varying to sunlight
Bilking your plan in the face
Driving your fun with a pen knife
Think you can down it away?
Oodles and metal we thank
Not anything coming is bad
Doming the crown of your hand
Sometimes just hope is a tramp
They cut our wings and then they ring 'round unto
Pull them apart right in our face
How many thumbscrews in your own apartment?
How many tortures in their place?
Sad as in something in value
No one else gives it the space
Call it a matter of anger
Like most of the things that you hate
They should do something about you
They should do something about you
They should do something about you
They should do something about you
How bold are you no?
How bold are you oh?
I know what you sow
We are
Swimming and loading your basement
Fractured and mangled and down
Textbook example debasement
More how it looks than it sounds
Oodles and metal we thank
Not anything coming is bad
Doming the crown of your hand
Sometimes just hope is a tramp
