its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
We stand by our ways
It is not just a game that we play.
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand.
These walls can't keep us in (no matter what has been)
This fight runs under my skin.
Our gift to a world in need
A soundtrack for the brand new breed.
Never before did you see
Throughout all of history
Such a rebel force, an army
Of little freaks.
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand.
These walls can't keep us in (no matter what has been)
This fight runs under my skin.
Why have we fallen?
How could we fail always?
Time's up you corporate whores
We reinvented the art of war.
Never before did you see
Such an underground victory
Such a rebel force, an army
Of little freaks.
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand.
These walls can't keep us in (no matter what has been)
This fight runs under my skin.
Why have we fallen?
How could we fail always?
All lies are believable
Even the ones we are never - told.
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand.
These walls can't keep us in (no matter what has been)
This fight runs under my skin.
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand.
These walls are about to fall
Prepare for the total recall
Revolution burns within us all.
It is not just a game that we play.
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand.
These walls can't keep us in (no matter what has been)
This fight runs under my skin.
Our gift to a world in need
A soundtrack for the brand new breed.
Never before did you see
Throughout all of history
Such a rebel force, an army
Of little freaks.
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand.
These walls can't keep us in (no matter what has been)
This fight runs under my skin.
Why have we fallen?
How could we fail always?
Time's up you corporate whores
We reinvented the art of war.
Never before did you see
Such an underground victory
Such a rebel force, an army

Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand.

Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand.
These walls can't keep us in (no matter what has been)
This fight runs under my skin.
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand.
These walls are about to fall
Prepare for the total recall
Revolution burns within us all.

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
The world is telling us lies and we just buy into it. Those who try to stand up are stifled. 2012-- a revolution will occur.
I feel like a creepy conspiracy theorist, sorry guys.
