Master Plan Lyrics
You run away from everything that you fear
So afraid, don't wanna be a part of it
You see the fake in everything that is real
You hate the paradox, you put us in a box
We don't define what makes us right or wrong
Waste of time, though we're just living it
I wanna see you, touch you, one on one
Won't stop until we're done
We've only just begun
We are the face of a new generation
We are the ones who have no reservation
Don't give a damn about your cold calculation
Welcome to the master plan
Don't care if you understand
Don't care if you understand
Welcome to the master plan
Your skin is burning at the sight of me
Your mask can't hide what you're thinking
Don't ask, don't tell, just take what you need
I'm an open book, so go on and take a look
We are the face of a new generation
We are the ones who have no reservation
Don't give a damn about your cold calculation
Welcome to the master plan
Don't care if you understand
Don't care if you understand
Welcome to the master plan
There's you, there's me, I feel your energy
I hope you'll see things ain't what they used to be
Look at the face, look at the face
We are the face of a new generation
We are the ones who have no reservation
Don't give a damn about your cold calculation
Welcome to the master plan
Don't care if you understand
Don't care if you understand
Welcome to the master plan
Don't care if you under-
Welcome to the master plan
Don't care if you understand
So afraid, don't wanna be a part of it
You see the fake in everything that is real
You hate the paradox, you put us in a box
We don't define what makes us right or wrong
Waste of time, though we're just living it
I wanna see you, touch you, one on one
Won't stop until we're done
We've only just begun
We are the ones who have no reservation
Don't give a damn about your cold calculation
Welcome to the master plan
Don't care if you understand
Don't care if you understand
Welcome to the master plan
Your mask can't hide what you're thinking
Don't ask, don't tell, just take what you need
I'm an open book, so go on and take a look
We are the ones who have no reservation
Don't give a damn about your cold calculation
Welcome to the master plan
Don't care if you understand
Don't care if you understand
Welcome to the master plan
I hope you'll see things ain't what they used to be
Look at the face, look at the face
We are the ones who have no reservation
Don't give a damn about your cold calculation
Welcome to the master plan
Don't care if you understand
Don't care if you understand
Welcome to the master plan
Don't care if you under-
Don't care if you understand

I think this song is about Adam recognizing the person he's singing to as a closet case, and he's determined to blow that closet open. x3
He talks about hiding things you fear, and the whole "don't ask, don't tell" line, and I think he's talking about how not everyone can be classified as gay and straight when he talks about being pigeon-holed... Not to mention the whole "your skin is burning at the sight of me, your mask can't hide what you're thinking" bit.
I think the "master plan" is, basically, about telling the world that mass-exposure to homosexuality will get them used to it. It's the key to acceptance.
I've always thought the song was about Republicans (Or in general social conservatives) and homosexuality. "You run away from everything that you fear / So afraid, don't wanna be a part of it / You see the fake in everything that is real / You hate the paradox, you put us in a box", and the thing which really gave it away was "Don't ask, don't tell, just take what you need", because of course Don't Ask Don't Tell being the ban on openly gay military members in the USA, and DADT is basically saying "Yeah come and fight for us, but we only want you, not your personal life", which the line basically sums up.
total anthem songs that makes me wanna shake my ass.

I agree with second and fourth postees on here. It could go either way. Great analyzing guys!
