The intro is wrong, its: "Listen close, as the rain falls down to the ground"
This song simply sums up the fact that mankind will be the cause of its own destruction. This has been a though for a long time, but the singer begs "Am I the only one who realizes its true"
I am an atheist and as much as I try to deny the significant Biblical influence in the song, I cannot. It is obvious that the composer believes in God. However, I think that if you deconstruct this song and remove the Biblical implications... you have a truly strong meaning that can be appreciated by people of all beliefs.
