MASSIVE ATTACK

- Future Proof Lyrics

Borderline cases
Reinforced glass
Absent friends
Passport photos
An elastic past
Empty pocket
They think it is all...
They think it's soul
All wrapped up on a swollen lip
He draws the warm pipe.

Chemicals
Chemicals captured in winter's grip
Turn us on
Seperate the leper
Hungry ghosts
Hungry ghosts
Another imprint
In borrowed clothes
We can be numb
We can be numb
Passing through

Blow blow blow blow

Borderline case
Future proof
Real thin air
Real thin air
Real thin air

What is the meaning behind Future Proof lyrics?


When we search for the deeper meaning hidden within the lines, the song 'Future Proof' by Massive Attack covers isolation, nostalgia and the passage of time as its main themes. While the lyrics illustrate a person, who is not only feeling alienated, but also is recalling the past and struggling with the impermanence of life, the author states that the very references to 'borderline case,' 'absent friends' and 'plastic past' are indications of weakness and transience. At the same time, the word 'blow' that is mentioned over and over again could be interpreted as a sign of one's wish to get away from or to be less sensitive about the hard to bear reality and thus, the whole song can be characterized as expressive of a haunting and introspective mood that is going through the exploration of the intricacies of human feelings and the impermanent nature of being. Lyrics of Future proof have a strong emphasis on angst, reflection, despair, heartbreak, and nostalgia. Besides, the song gives nostalgic memory and struggle with numbness importance. The lyrics contain some themes and references that are not suitable for very young children, like substances and numbness which might be indicative of deeper emotional or psychological issues, however, there is no profanity, no violence, or sexual content that would make a higher rating necessary.
