i think this song is more of a political one, and personally i think its more about hiding the truth from the people of the world. I think its generally about the government and about making sure that people see only what the government want the public to see, 'hide the truth from my eyes i will never know' in my opinion means tht people will never know anything true about wot is herd on the news, tht small facts and secrets are kept 'under wraps' and the fact tht people realise this, they feel like they know nothing, which scares them. shadows could refer to people hu actually no the truth but have to live separate lives to others as they would be outclassed by millions watching the news, and if such truth was ever told it wud change the world we live in. it can also refer to war i some cases as well
