“Crossing the Rubicon” is an example of a clever use of song structure with a Pre Chorus–Chorus–Post Chorus structure.
The Chorus is the key message, with the Pre Chorus building up to it, and the Post Chorus coming back down from that build up. The Bridge serves as a wake up call in this instance....
Crossing The Rubicon Lyrics
[Chorus]
Now we're crossing the Rubicon
We tried everything under the sun
So we're crossing the Rubicon
'Cause it's too late, it's too late
[Post-Chorus]
Fill me out a prescription
For this existential dread
I woke up into a nightmare
And I'm hoping that you'll take me back to bed
[Pre-Chorus]
But we can't turn back it's a labyrinth
Now the die is cast my friend (we endeavour)
Christ what a mess
I think Beckett said it best -
Try again, fail again, fail better
[Chorus]
Now we're crossing the Rubicon
We tried everything under the sun
So we're crossing the Rubicon
'Cause it's too late, it's too late
[Post-Chorus]
Fill me out a prescription
Can you free me from this curse?
I woke up inside your compass
And you're navigating us from east to worst
[Pre-Chorus]
But we can't turn back it's a labyrinth
Now the die is cast my friend (we endeavour)
Christ what a mess
I think Beckett said it best -
Try again, fail again
Try again, fail again
Try again, fail again, fail better
[Chorus]
Now we're crossing the Rubicon
We tried everything under the sun
So we're crossing the Rubicon
'Cause it's too late, it's too late
[Bridge]
Something's got to give
We've come too far to turn back
Something's got to give
We've come too far to turn back
Something's got to give
We've come too far to turn back
Something's got to give now
[Chorus]
Now we're crossing the Rubicon
We tried everything under the sun
So we're crossing the Rubicon
'Cause it's too late, it's too late

What did Enter Shikari say about "Crossing The Rubicon"?
This is one of the most outwardly positive tracks on the record. It has a little Easter-eggy callback to a synth from the track “Labyrinth” from our first album 2007’s Take to the Skies. “Labyrinth” was about navigating through life’s hardships, and that’s what this track is about too. The title com...
