Cathedral Lyrics
A monument
Of failure
A testament
To an unfailing will
Against the sky stands our cathedral
A picture of our isolation
In the dark we must build an answer
At any cost
Measured symmetry
Belies desperation
An attempt to write in stone
The dreams of the young
Against the sky stands our cathedral
A picture of our isolation
In the dark we must build an answer
A pillar to our fleeting solace
Against the sky stands our cathedral
Clutching at the passing time
It was built to be an answer
Take from it what you can
Of failure
A testament
To an unfailing will
A picture of our isolation
In the dark we must build an answer
At any cost
Belies desperation
An attempt to write in stone
The dreams of the young
A picture of our isolation
In the dark we must build an answer
Clutching at the passing time
It was built to be an answer
Take from it what you can

Seems to me to be a statement on our attempts to explain things with the "cathedral", which stands for our religions and all that. And how hopeless that all our hopes really are?
