Oil and Water Lyrics

I think this song is about humanity, just as I see Light Grenades as being. (you can go check my post there)

We build cities by volcanoes then cry when people die, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT? It is saying disasters happen but we lie to our selves that everything is alright and no one is going to die, but frankly, shit happens and we can't protect our selves from everything. The soul of humanity tries to shelter its self from problems. It's happened before and it will happen again.

Also.. mixing oil and water, it seems that oil has become more important to us than water sometimes.
