Permanence unfolding in the absolute - the realization that you’re stuck in the situation that is not going to be over anytime soonįorgiveness is the ultimate sacrifice - can you forgive the government for betraying you or putting you in a position to die?Įloquence belongs, to the conqueror – the conqueror/leader has to be smooth to get your forgiveness. Ok so this song is about the state of the world during war timesĬonquest to the lover - War for the ones who love itĪnd your love to the fire - and what does the government do with that ‘love’? throws it to the fire! because it doesn’t matter they have you in there grips now, you work for them In this little piece of typical tragedy." It is about how this current war has the typical lying propaganda. "The pictures of time and space are rearranged, Other people's love (for the country or their families) doesn't matter. Conquest for those that love their country. "What is in us that turns a deaf ear to the cries of human suffering?!!!" is about us ignoring atrocities going on.Ībout how the victor or stronger power, the United States, has all the power to bring peace.Ībout nationalism and love of country. The chorus is about how our time will be looked upon sadly as a time of warfare, death, and the demise of liberty (the sad statue of liberty.) The "Generation" is the younger generation that is opposed to this war. I think the song is about current warfare. What is in us that turns a deaf ear to the cries of human suffering?!!! The pictures of time and space are rearranged, "You and me, we'll all go down in history with a sad Statue of Liberty and a generation that didn't agree", means our generation will be remebered in the text books as the dumb asses who were gulable enough to still beleive the bullshit after all of the other times propoganda was swallowed up and beleived so easily. realizes what is going on and makes it sad to see it's great country doing this. The sad statue of liberty is saying that the last pure thing that represents the U.S. "What is it in us that turns a deaf ear to the cries of human suffering", Why do we beleive everything the media and government tell us especially when it means we turn our backs on people in desperate need of help. "Justified Candy, Brandy for the nerves" represents the propoganda itself. "The pictures of time and space rearranged", this is showing that the government can change what was seen and heard with their propoganda. "Eloquence,(The quality of persuasive, powerful expression) belongs to the conqueror." This means that the person in control is persuasive and can control what people think. I agree totally with the guy with the long interpretation, but I think one of the most important themes of this song is the propoganda.
