Listen to this song and imagine you're one of those people on September 11th standing on a window ledge with the building burning down below you. That's what the song is about. It's quite chilling.

I agree. It seems obvious to me, I was surprised to hear other interpretations.

@kanoonthephone I was looking for this interpretation. This was exactly my immediate take. Very chilling indeed.
