Wow, Serj said that? Yeah, that is kinda weird. I thought it was about the media and the government and whatnot obscuring your course (the ships are the people like you and me) and driving you offshore with false promises and confmormity etc., and that there will come a day when they have to give up the lighthouse because we will see through it all and make our way to our destination. And it takes so much work to do so, to be the lone ship ignoring the lighthouse's light and going it alone. (giving a piece of your ass, get ready for the fire)
