"And chaos is yours,
And chaos is mine
And chaos is luck and like luck and love blind
So I say, oh, I see now
It's just smoke"
This is an amazing song. To me it is about religious fanatics of all faiths. He says, "So I say it's the white hair of Poseiden
Ebbing the tide in some dead sea
So you say it's ths shroud of Turin".
He is saying we all have different beliefs about God or higer powers. One may be Christian and another may be mythology. But all beliefs are bound by one common fact; they all base their beliefs on abstract "invisible" things like "wicked winged things" also known as angels or demons (depending on how you look at it). But then he says that all this leads us in chaotic lives but beware to write believers off as irratioinal because love is also chaotic and we all believe in love.
He goes on;
"But they're subject to hating us
Oh, just like the rest of us
Oh, but just like the best of us
They need the rest of us to stay alive"
One group may be hated by another and wonder why, but if they look at them selves, they hate right back. And their leaders hate too! But if there were no believers, there would be no church or God HImself.
He then ends the song by stateing.
"So I say, oh, I see now
It's just smoke"
We are all fighting over things that don't really matter, getting obsessed an blinded by the smoke when there are more important things to get to.
I actually thing the lines are:
