| This song is about jacking off to internet porn... bare wiht me, in the into lines he has just finnished so its time for "Clensing Everything to forget your love" and the chorus is reminising on doing so, the plug in baby is a plug in girlfriend as in internet porn. I do hope he reads this, thankyouplease. | |

| "i think it's about a girl. She turns on and off her love for him very easily like a fan, or washing machine or vacuum cleaner or whatever shit. So he's saying that he's exposed her lies - he knows that she's just faking it - but at the same time he cannot bear to deal with the truth either. then she's tired of giving so she's gonna stop but like he wants to continue this... this... fake thing." -- Bobbin | |

| I think this song is about Matt's guitar as Benfold'sfan mentioned. He is also talking about the digital generation and how we are headed towards a future in which everything can be plugged in and switched off. Maybe some gurl has been mean to him and he is using his guitar as escapism 'in unbroken virgin realities'... he doesn't want to face the truth without her..? Actually, I did always think this song had sexual undertones to it though like some people up there mentioned, maybe he is talking about pornography?? | |

| Origin of Symmetry is easily the best album ever. Seriously. I agree with it being about the digital age and everything, but I also agree with it being about the internet porn thing. What seems to give me this idea is the very first line "I've exposed your lies baby" because sometimes you don't know who you're talkin to online, you know?But he's finally found out the truth and now "its time for changing and cleansing everything to forget your love" so he has to forget about this person(I'm assuming it would be a woman, or maybe he just thought it was a woman?) and move on with his life. I really love the introduction to this song. As someone said above (Leviathon90), it does seem like it could be played on a violin getting faster and faster. One of my favourite Muse songs. I think its only beaten by Hysteria which just freaks me out so much its starting to get fun. Ciao for now. | |

| this is my song of 2001. the drumming and guitar before the chorus is truley apocolyptic. and the chorus itself freezes my spine and shatters it | |

| Origin of Symmetry is the sexiest album ever. I think this song has sexual overtones to it, much like the whole album. | |
