i think the song's about life itself and how we get lost in life, how we fight with all our strength to take control but there is no control, things just happen and you just react, ultimately, you have no choice, no time to analyse and think things through, you just live the moment, take instantaneous decisions. In the end, the time you were given ends and you part with nothing but memories, no true answer, no true meaning...
"The unexamined life is not worth living."--Socrates' analogy about how busy people stroll through the streets of the city with only short term goals; working for money and becoming a slave of consumerism to feed the needs and standards of the system, without questioning and focusing any energy on how to explore themselves and look for long term goals of personal success/happiness, which results in a lack of meaning, value, and purpose in their lives; perfectly fits the meaning of this song.
