Sounds like its about soldiers. The US army is mostly just 18 yr old kids with guns.
Mesmerized skeletons
Seems to back up the last statement... but i'll get to that in a second.
Turning us into monsters
Turnin us into fire
Turning us into monsters
But its all desire
The sounds like the pretext for war. Recruiting these kids on a lie and a "cause". Taking them far away and making them into killers. But it's not a just cause, its all desire. Monsters are the killers, fire is the vengence... but its all for greed (desire).
The mesmerized skeletons is about these poor kids with guns who are convinced that they're going to war for a noble reason but they're just being sent to kill and die for other people's desires and gains.
Easy does it. Easy does it.
Think of something to say no to.
Lets see if we can break it down...
