This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
My whole life is tearing at the seams, I try to do
something but I can't. Your actions silence what I think
and what I say. Close my eyes and wish for a better place. The
walls are closing in, your thoughts have sealed my fate to
the point of no return, punished for one mistake. Here I am
accompanied by loneliness and regret, laughter turned to tears. It's
too late now. you told me that things were going to be better, and like
the fool I am I believed you. My feelings are strong, I can't put
them in words, I try but I can't, you never listen and I'm sick of it. so
I'm faced with a choice. Should I stay or turn around? I hope I
don't make the same mistake as last time...

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
