Here we are searching for a sign (sign)
Here we are searching for a sign (sign)

It's the end, here today
But I will build a new beginning
Take some time, find a place
And I will start my own religion

As the day divides the night
Here we are searching for a sign

Watch the men multiply
See them ease out of the circle
Watch your friends run and hide
Help them fall back in this cycle

Searching

[Chorus]
You saw what you get if you take what you take
Look in the eye of the test, it's all because
Now there's a feeling I get when I look to the left
I should never resist the searching for a sign

Can you feel it?
Things are changing
Can you see it?
Watch as the world's colliding
Can you see it?
Can you feel it?
Watch as the worlds collide into themselves
Collide into themselves

Another time, another place
Another time, another place
Some paradimensional race
Some paradigm has shunned the race

Searching

[Chorus: x2]

    Song Meaning:i think it means that when we all die.. '' The end of Beginning'' that he will start his own religion, and that his searching for a sign.
    ''Watch the men multiply
    See them ease out of the circle
    Watch your friends run and hide
    Help them fall back in this cycle'' i think means that when men are created and ge out of the cycle of man.. and run and hide from the day when we all die and help them get back in this cycle so we could start a new end of beginning!

    ''You saw what you get
    If you take what you take
    Look in the eye of the test
    It's all because...
    Now there's a feeling I get
    When I look to the left
    But it should never be sensed
    Our searching for a sign'' Look in the eye of the test.. i think means that when you get judged you will take a test first. And when he looks to the left he senses something and he shouldve never done it.
    ''Can you feel it?
    Things are changing
    Can you see it?
    Watch as the worlds colliding
    Can you see it?
    Can you feel it?
    Watch as the worlds...
    Collide into themselves
    Collide into themselves

    He says, things are changing, that means that i think that the world is ending and hes watching them collide into each other..

    General Comment:the way I see it, this band was named around a theory that science and the evolution of human-kind is so limited by our religion and the basic morals and laws we have formed around religion. thinking about it literally, "thirty seconds to mars", as in we are so close to being able to perform long-distance space travel, but we are being held back, amongst various other examples.

    this song however makes me think of the continuation of this story perhaps, and it seems to me that this song depicts the segregation of the world into two new worlds, and their final confliction.

    General Comment:I always saw it as a story, like most of their songs. They work on their own, but sometimes, it seems like the album has an overarching story to it. Especially since so many of the songs borrow lines from each other. I actually agree with Hackstar on this as well. I always thought it was about someone trying to uncover something.

    That really fits in with the "plot" of their songs. If not part of the same story, I always imagined their songs as taking place in the same fictional universe. I always imagined a world that had advanced space travel but wasn't very futuristic otherwise, and full of secret societies, corruption, desperate people, conspiracies, hidden/lost technology... Just a very dark, esoteric, violent world. (Pretty much what you said, Unsound!)

    My favorite part is when he repeats "another time, another place." The mood of a short story I intend to write was actually somewhat inspired by the emotion in that line. (And the plot flashed before my eyes in a half-dream I had while waking up from a nap in a planetarium...)

    General Comment:I agree w/ Hackstar...but I think the deep dark secret is something inside of the speaker...

    the whole cd seems to be about finding yourself and losing pieces of yourself in the process.

    General Comment:"You know the day destroys the night
    Night divides the day
    Tried to run, Tried to hide
    Break on through to the other Side"

    Inspiration by the Doors?

    General Comment:Their debut album is a concept album centrered around the idea that space travel/ escaping earth represents separating from what humanity has become (which Leto doesn't consider very human); which is dominated by war and religeon, and ultimately, religeous wars ("This is what's right and we go to fight for freedom and justice and innocence so get out their and do your part while I sit back in washington- oh wait, you're already dead. Somebody bring me another 100k soldiers...)

    General Comment:The entire first CD is a concept album I dont really know what it's all about, but basically it's got something to do with someone who believes he is a god and a war I have been told before. Ooh, it rhymes lol
