This song is about someone that got everything he wanted: things like money, prestige, popularity, etc.. And by going after these things he went against this morals and beliefs, shuting out his conscience. Now, he got everything he wanted.. but hes still not happy and he realizes that he wanted all the wrong things... But he pretends that everything is ok blaming it on "his flawed design" aka the imperfections of humanity. So he lies to himself because the truth, it hurts..
