It's a long shot, but I think this is about global warming - about the apathy of the older generation, and our willingness to destroy for a little luxury.

A few hints: "What will make you understand? Holding death in your hand?" (At what point do we stop? Only when it's too late?)

"And when youve come to realize its way too late God dammit you HAVE realized and it`s way too late" (self-explanatory)

"Await the better days, don't pull your weight" (Just pretend it's not there, leave it to the younger generations)

"Once bitten, twice shy, Then how come we all die?" (as the saying goes, we have seen the destruction for ourselves, and should be more careful now; however, for whatever reason, this is not the case).

Like I said, a long shot, and I probably sound like Al Gore here, but it makes sense.
