To me, it has two possible meanings: religion and money. Most likely money. The basic premise is that supreme dominion is, and always will be, in the hands of the rich: "This is ours to love and take apart at will."

"These woven webs conceal the blueprints from me" is James' lament of how things are changing solely to meet the expectations of the rich. Basically, that they've masked the original beauty ("blueprints") of things with "woven webs" and "wires."

"Sometimes we kill the lights/Pretend that we survived/We're never gonna die" Dying here is probably metaphorical. When the current millionaires pass out of existence, there will always be more to take their place, and the cycle of corporate ruin will persist.

Phew. You can tell I'm bored.
