Nothing But Thieves

Trip switch, trip switch lyrics.

Album art

To me, this song is a criticism of the so-called Internet Age.

Verse 1 & 2: We're willing to release any variety of information about ourselves online. We are willing to cultivate a sort of Internet-based sex life with complete strangers and we get into ferocious arguments with other strangers. We seek happiness with the press of a computer key, getting enjoyment from the little blurbs of information in the packets we get through our internet connections.

Verse 3: We're addicted to our data connections. Information is being beamed directly into our homes and into our phones and laptops when we're out. Just as we are willing to put our own information out there, we voraciously take in the information put out by everyone else.

Chorus: This seems to be posing an open question to the listener: what will we do if (or quite possibly when) the grid goes down and we can't satiate our electronic addiction?

So what do we do? How do we fix this?
