Heard every word
you whispered miles away
some were obscured
but others struck my good ear plain as day
the cardiograph beeped a rhythm I could shuffle to
you beat down the door
but I don't owe you anything anymore
I'm shutting your office door
you won the battle but lost the war
Noone's lording over me now
ain't got no power
aint got no power over me now
I shot straight off the edge
I guess the world is flat after all
that's what you said
it's just funny
got lodged inside my head
replaced the other thoughts I had
it's too much to comprehend
No one's lording over me now
ain't got no power over
ain't got no power over me now
you whispered miles away
some were obscured
but others struck my good ear plain as day
you beat down the door
but I don't owe you anything anymore
I'm shutting your office door
you won the battle but lost the war
ain't got no power
aint got no power over me now
I guess the world is flat after all
that's what you said
it's just funny
got lodged inside my head
replaced the other thoughts I had
it's too much to comprehend
ain't got no power over
ain't got no power over me now

Seems to me the song is about someone who's gaining some independence and that person is the only one in control of their own opinion now. It may be a bit confusing comprehending every fact and opinion in the world, but nobody can control how he thinks about it.
"The cardiograph beeped a rhythm I could shuffle to" is just a great line...
@sameshoes But what does it mean? It's rather confusing, don't you think?

About a guy who heard people talking about him behind his back at his job. The guy talking about him came into his office and blasted him. He doesn't care though because he quit his job. He is confused as to what is going to happen in his life now, but he is free.
