Minus the Bear – Lotus Lyrics 18 years ago
It's definitely about complacency and inaction of Americans in the current political climate.

Ghosts/angels could stand for wiretapping,
The man in the blue suit stands for politicians; they're referenced again in the second part of the song as being red-handed and having money on their breath.

"Blind your eyes watching sunbeams
You can't see this
creeping pack of dogs"

I think this means turning a blind eye to the ravenous politicians and profiteers slowly consuming the country and creeping up to bite you in the ass after not doing anything to stop them.

I think it's an extension of Burying Luck, in that he's talking about losing his girl.

"You're safe if I'm safe
And if she's safe we're ok
The sooner we're past this we'll all stop our knocking on wood..."

I think this means that as long as his girl is alright, with whomever she's with, then he's ok with it and he can stop hoping she will come back to him.
