I never once even thought that this song was racist. The reason I never thought this was because In Flames has never written a racial song. The album is titled, "Reroute To Remain" for a reason... they're about uniting the world rather than tearing it apart. Most of their songs are about bettering society, not dividing it.
Nevertheless, the above statements are plausable interpretations of the song, more valid than my own interpretation, but I just don't feel they are true to the artist's intentions.
I suggest that the song is about the opposite opinions of two people in a bad relationship... although like I just said, the previous interpretations are stronger than mine.
