He's ashamed of that house, where everything began.
He never thinks about his parents or the poverty, when he got away from there
He draws wide lines, awakens fear in among many
I'ts said that he has habit of sweeping problems away from his path
Looking from the cold screen, cold news reports
Even though he organized it all years ago
He doesn't feel a thing
Power is increasing intoxication, A three cubit* god
Awakens in him, if he trusts in it, and the trust will hold
Chorus:
Like him we are wandering, lost and we don't know
Where disappeared great hopes, as all we grow is misfortune
In his great glory, god gave us the world
To burn, and to destroy got it, the good human
In his great glory, god gave us the world
To burn, and to destroy got it, the good human
On the streets riot brakes out, but it's just mosquito buzzing
He calls from his hotel room a call girl
and orders her to come by
That second flying by he remembers his wife and kids
But only this way he can feel something
And time runs by...
Chorus:
*Cubit is old unit of traditional measure of length used in Sweden and Finland
To me it seems like the song is about people, who have lost the ability to feel anything, and are at least somewhat self centered. and are in high position, (parlament, global business, etc) and are willing and able to use "any means necessary" to get what they want,
But at the same time it's how humanity and the world overall is crumbling under different stresses, Wars, pollution etc.
People who actually have things rather well (western world as we know it) but we want to keep everything by ourlself, forgetting people who have it much worse (developing country's) and general pollution and ecological problems of the world itself.
