I'd have to disagree with Bazal's statement. I would have agreed with it earlier on, but nowadays I find the whole generation thing rather amusing, as well as a little annoying. I read in a paper something that summed it up perfectly I thought. It went something along the lines of "Someone needs to tell the youth of each generation that older people don't all have some collective amnesia that makes them forget they were also young once. Being young is not a destination, just a particularly rocky stage on a much larger journey". If anyone wonders, I'm 22, so I'm not a complaining old man but probably a bit older than some people. And remember one day, we'll all be the 'previous generation' cursing the new one for their strange ways and lack of respect. Such is the cycle of life. ;)
I was watching a Full Metal Panic AMV for this song and it had a suitably apocalyptic/war theme to it so that leads me to feel this song is written along those lines. These days, war and apocalypse seem to go hand in hand.
