Lyric discussion by Dragnox

I believe the artist is singing for a blanketed mass of people. You hear a few tracks of people arguing their point in the beginning of the song, a bit after the singer breaks through the people arguing... Let's talk about me!! Hey, a lot of people want to talk about themselves, even when starting a conversation neutral, they want to talk about them.. And in the process there is a breakdown in communication because each of the people talking... only hear themselves...

Debates (particularly privately rather than a "debate team," which would be quite different really), arguments, even plain everyday conversation...

In my opinion the artist is portraying the opposite of what he wants you to see, in the process of which, you will see the picture more clearly (from both sides, once you realize the other).

I took a lot away from the song, I take a lot away from a lot of their songs... If you really listen, (and even in the process you may only be forming your own opinion about what the song means, well I guess I should truly how you interpret the song is your own, and the closer you get to what the artist is trying to portray, or believe that you have done so, the more the song means to you.) you can take a LOT away from their songs.

@Dragnox I agree, this is a case of saying something just to mean the opposite. It reminds me of "don't answer me".

Let's talk about each other, not ourselves.
