Futurism Lyrics
Ignorance pulls
Apostasy and apathy still rules
Yeah, you know it's cool
Just suck and see
A future turns us into silent gods
And I won't miss you at all
[Chorus]
Grounded, boxed in
Like the evil in your veins
Grounded, boxed in
I am stuck with you
[Verse 2]
Fate can't decide
Alignment of the planets in your hands
Come on, crush our plans
Just suck and see
A future that won't let you disagree
And I won't miss you at all
[Chorus]
Grounded, boxed in
Like the evil in your veins
Grounded, boxed in
I am stuck with you
Feel it, hear it, apathy you are
See it, be it, you'll see
About
An Origin of Symmetry Japanese bonus track.
There is a live recording of the song performed in 2000, under the name Spectrum, and it was chaotic. The song was left off most releases of the album due to its difficulty to play. It has only ever been played twice in its existence, the one I’ve already mentioned and one earlier this year at the Zepp in Tokyo. The version played this year is much better than the Spectrum recording.
This song ended up, also, as the B-Side to Dead Star – if you want the rare studio version without buying the album again (assuming you already have a different release).
This song’s sound has epic, heavily distorted bass that, according to Matt, led to the idea for Hysteria’s bass line. The main guitar riff is a handful a notes followed by a squelch, another handful of notes and then some squeaks.
