I think it means getting lost in a jungle or forest. And then dying from the natures trick for first of blood.

Our story starts so very, very deep underground
Unaware of the legions they are building down there
Then comes the sound, a shrill signal loud enough to drown
The time has come, Mother Nature's now holding the gun
Well once you enter the hive
You'll never make it out alive
It's been devised
So no human being will survive
Could it be worse
I think they've acquired a thirst
We claimed it first
Now the meek shall inherit the earth
Kill one and two more will take its place
Withdraw, the city's under martial law
A nameless horror, like nothing we've encountered before
The time has come for mankind to be undone
They're coming up
You're going down
They're coming up
You're going down
Well once you enter the hive
You'll never make it out alive
It's been devised
So no human being will survive
Could it be worse
I think they've acquired a thirst
We claimed it first
Now the meek shall inherit the earth
Welcome to annihilation
Devastation across the nation
Welcome to eternal damnation
A revelation void of salvation
Welcome to extermination
Abomination through mutation
Welcome to the aberration
Transformation then liberation
They're coming up
You're going down
They're coming up
You're going down
Well once you enter the hive
You'll never make it out alive
It's been devised
So no human being will survive
Could it be worse
I think they've acquired a thirst
We claimed it first
Now the meek shall inherit the earth
Unaware of the legions they are building down there
Then comes the sound, a shrill signal loud enough to drown
The time has come, Mother Nature's now holding the gun
Well once you enter the hive
You'll never make it out alive
It's been devised
So no human being will survive
Could it be worse
I think they've acquired a thirst

Now the meek shall inherit the earth
Kill one and two more will take its place
Withdraw, the city's under martial law

You're going down
They're coming up
You're going down

0My OpinionI'd imagine it's mostly a reference to the film "Them!" Just as "Aim for the Head" and "Look to the Skies" are "Dawn of the Dead" and "Invasion of the Bodysnatchers."amnesiasofton August 04, 2011 Link

This song is Swift's response to the negative reputation the media has given her.
"I can make the bad guys good for a weekend" - the bad guys are the paparazzi to Swift, but are good to the "player" since association with Swift immediately gives publicity. Any publicity is good publicity and Swift knows this.
"You can tell me when it's over" - the tabloids rumor relationships are over before the couple announces it officially.
With this song Swift is portraying the way she is portrayed by the media.
It is a sarcastic jab at how she views herself and how her "ex-lovers" only wanted to be with her to increase their fame.
I applaud the brilliance in writing about how you always write about relationships.
It is expected so Swift is giving the media what they want and profiting off the attention.

The man has pseudo-friends who constantly criticize his actions. They moralize him, "teach" him and advise him to make a significant change in his life, because the way he is and what he does is not what they say it should be. They may find his life lame or immoral. They hold themselves up as role models. The man replies that he will make his own choices and decisions and he does not agree to unconditionally make himself under the influence of questionable quality advice. He justifies this by saying that there is always someone for whom he will be important, no matter what he does and no matter what he is. Although it is not said directly, I read it as meaning that he will always be important to himself in every way and he will always have his own support.
"Everyone is different and maybe that's a good thing, but you exceeded that mark 1000 times" - I remember very well how sad the words I once heard (from my peers and it was in negative context) at school made me feel.
