Lyric discussion by meggybears 

Sheryl Crow has performed this, but it is originally done by World Party. Both versions are quite nice. :)

This song, to me, is about humanity over time. Over the centuries, the questions are still the same. Why are we here? What are we doing? What purpose do we have? How could it come to this?

@meggybears Indeed. Karl says he was inspired to write the song by reading Bertrand Russell's "History of Western Philosophy".
