This song is first about the American Dream: "I’ve got something that I stole."
It's about an unjustified war in the MidEast: "They say the holy wars/were all started by hired crooks."
It's about America's obsession with youth: "And you can’t stop the reaper/from the sythe that she’s swinging."
It's about a contradition: "We’re always running/it’s not too late/we’re running."
