| we're all born free supposedly. but life sometimes is just one big line that never moves. the line can represents everything in our lives that is holding us back. but if we find a backdoor maybe we can escape all of that. | |

| I think that this song is partly saying that people (especially in America) take their lives for granted. We are all slaves to the way we live our life, but yet we have so many freedoms compared to so many people. People just don't realize how good we have it in America. I travel to places like Mexico and Haiti where people work making 2 dollars a day sewing together baseballs... where they dont even have enough money to eat a meal some nights.. but these people are the happiest people i have ever seen in my life ... they're happy to just be alive ... so stop for just one second and think about how great we have it and appreciate it for just one miute, stop being a slave to society. You can live without half of the posessions you own. We are so privlaged 1 2 Next | |

| the world today is screwed up by society and rules and government and all that crap, and not too many people notice it because of corruption. this is a song about how easy it is to look from a different perspective, and maybe look for a way out | |

| I think he's saying things don't always seem to be what they really are... and people bitching about everything aren't looking hard enough.find something that makes YOU happy. Incubus has the most amazing lyrics.. by far. | |

| Isn't it strange that a gift could be an enemy? = most of us think our life is a waste and were a waste and better off dead, so that basically means that most of us consider our life (the gift) an enemy, cause thinkgs aren't going as well as we would like em too. Isn't it weird that a priviledge could feel like a chore?= All of us feel like what we do is like a chore. Our daily routines and such...and well chores aren't the funnest thing, and we consider life a chore, cause we have to do things we rather not do. Maybe it's me but this line isn't going anywhere...= meaning comforming to something you don't believe makes it hard to feel comfortable doing whatever it is your doing, so you feel like your going nowhere. Maybe if we looked hard enough, we could find a backdoor (find yourself a backdoor) = meaning we can escape what society says is "normal" and "quality" and do whatever it is we feel comfortable with (sorta like religion ) I see you in line, dragging your feet = that most of us comform to society without realizing it and comform to the ideals, maybe not on purpose, but were all so blinded, and sheltered from the rest of the world ( U.S ) you have my sympathy = sounds like brandon is saying that he feels bad for us that have gotten immuned to this egocentric society, and can't think for ourselves. The day you were born, you were born free = this means that we werent born with certain needs or thoughts, hopes, dreams, goals, etc...and that's why most of us are so hard on ourselves and negative, cause now we all worry and worrry, which means that were not free anymore. Another example...people aren't born evil, or full of hate...most of us grow hate or learn love and too love...but we all have free agency, which means we can make our own decisions, but concenquences will occur. and the rest of the song is basically the same message...i hope i made some sense...i love incubus cause they allow me to think and ponder about what they say and it's usually a message or revalation to me, and i absolutly admire and respect that...maybe some of you that like incubus should try thinking for yourselves...and not go by incubus's word and say how you relate to them...cause you don't...just try to get something out of their music...use it like a learning tool. | |
