This song is one of the easiest Wolf Parade songs to understand. Obviously it is about struggling with life and the eventual and inevitable end of life.
We "spend boring lives" in an office tower, a meaningless life we are "chained to."
So what happens in the end? We die, that's it? According to the singer, "no one gets out alive." He is at peace with death, singing "I'm content to be quiet." A lovely song overall.
