"But youve got another life
From the lies they told you"
To me, this song sounds like an internal as well as an external struggle. What I take from these lines is that one has to be active in defining oneself against the backdrop of social pressures. The most insidious are those who love us...as related in "It's all Gonna Break". I cannot look around at this world and recognize ANY moral authority that is both legitimate and qualified to set such an example that I would surrender my personal soveriegnty to follow. It's so important to distinguish the lies that others tell you from the lies that people tell themselves. Peace.
