I think this part means the discovery of his existance as other person, not that he is confused about his present life. Something like "omg, I'm not just Nick, I am a spirit that is here and has been here before! |

I didn't read the other comments. Sorry if I say something that someone already said. I apologize if I say something wrong.
Overture 1928 begins like and adventurous song. Perhaps it could be the excitement of Nick and the things that begin to get a bit clearer on his mind, but as he "falls deeper" he discovers that his past was something a bit more complex than it should be, so it ends on the last chords that in my opinion mean: "wtf happened to me in my previous life?!" |

I think the gears represent "the machine" that keeps all this bad stuff happening. On the sequence of its appearances, the gears spin faster and faster until something happens (an economical crisis, perhaps.. Just like that one from 1929, when everything was "running too fast") and the gears start spinning backwards. Thats is the moment when the buildings begin to collapse. My interpretation of the skyscrapers is that they represent the place where people "feed the machine" (I think that means to be inside the system), where everything seems normal inside of it (note that the lights are static and there is no movement inside the windows). However, the situation outside the buildings is the worst. Sorry for my bad english, I'm still studying it. |
