I'm not sure, actually - bits of it make sense, but I'm not sure about other bits (this song succeds in making me feel rather unintelligent).
Bits of the chorus seem to be sort of nostalgic about how the band used to be - "Cosmetic - polemic" (polemic= causing contoversy/dispute) especially. And "Destructive aesthetic" is very similar to the "Culture of destruction" of "Stay Beautiful". Also, the idea of being "Destinguished by relics" could be something to do with the fact that the band have changed over the years, and yet a lot of people still think of them as being how they were 10-15 years ago. I'm not sure - this is just guessing now.
There's loads of bits that I don't understand though - pretty much anything except what I said above. So I could quite easily be wrong, because there's so many bits that don't fit in. But that's the best I can do.
