This is what I get from the song. Some of you may agree, some of you may not. My comments are in [brackets]
She said what I was supposed to think
Thank God for freedom
Thank God for liberation
(She said) Now we are allowed to think
Now we are allowed to feel lust without cute boring love
[When it says "Thank God for Freedom, Thank God for Liberation", this could refer to earlier times before Women's liberation, when sexual freedom and expression were more taboo than they are and she is thankful that she is no longer restrained by that, but conversely, that freedom now allows people to want to feel nothing but lust instead of true love, which Christian, the singer, calls "Cute Boring Love" to refer to it as how someone who is only sexually obsessed would refer to it"
But don't you ever just like me
Long for purity
Don't you ever
Get sick of our territories
[I'm Pretty sure he is asking if he feels like him in wanting to feel true love and be pure at heart, instead of have nothing but sex. The territories may refer to uncivilized animal-like behavior of having territorial matings, as in how when one is only sex-obsessed like an animal]
What are you so scared of sister
What made you so afraid to feel
To chose a stone cold liberation
The one thing I hate most about me
Is the one thing you want to make your trademark
To feel lust without cute boring love
[He is asking her what closed her heart or drove her to the "Stone Cold Liberation" which I would assume would be some sort of sexual liberation. The writer also has had this sexual liberation and he hates himself for it.]
But don't you ever just like me
Long for purity
Don't you ever
Get sick of our territories
Don't you ever feel like glass
Fragile, hurting, letting it pass
Don't you think it's time to trespass
[He urges her to "trespass" or walk into an unknown territory. The word trespass hints at a fear of continuance into a new path]
But when the fire is gone
Who are you?
What are you so scared of sister?
I'm just as scared as you
[After this sexual liberation has finished, or after the sex dies, what is left?]
