Shriekback's All Lined Up

[design_femme]

So I'm listening to KYYX4ever's mix and I keep listening to this song on a loop. I'm intrigued by the lyrics. What do you guys think they mean? (esp. the part with "2 red circles and a thick black spine.") Any thoughts? theories?

Tired of all this crawling around
Realizing the joke was on us
Reaching out to the obvious -starting
With an answer not a question

Our most acceptable businesses
All aligned as one direction
Organised on the same lines
With one face, one sign

We got all lined up
We got all lined up
We got all lined up
All lined up
All lined up

Back at the all night party
We're getting clearer all the time
Refined to one shape
Frozen like crystal
It has a symmetry of perfect design
One line leads to another they cross at the corners
Run straight at the sides
It reads the same way in any direction
Two red circles and a thick black spine

We got all lined up
We got all lined up
We got all lined up
All lined up
All lined up

[i](note: I found these lyrics too, but I don't hear them in the version of the song that I got)[/i]

Let it fall into place we could tie it to a tree
We could point it at you, we could make it a habit
We could leave it outside or we could give it our food
Understand it or we could ignore it

Holding all the past in the one hand
We showed those people in a way they understand
Shiny little eyes on a big red bus
The ones we point at work for us
One sharp point between distinction

Going this way for x amount of time
Frame, line and convergence from
The first to the final this intention is mine

We got all lined up
We got all lined up
We got all lined up
All lined up
All lined up
