To me this song is very clear.

It's like you're in the House of Secrets, the new Babylon, whether it be in your homeland, your town, or your home. In the beginning I like the feel from the song, it makes you feel like a wayward spirit just wandering through the town.

So everything is normal, from the horse tables to the father reading tales to the child, but what goes on behind closed doors is another story.

And then all of a sudden, BOOM, she is calling for an uprising. For everyone to take a stand against the atrocities of a place gone bad. Stand up to you're values. Leave the pain behind. And dissappear.
