This is an amazing song by a very talented Canadian musician (one of my favourites).
Personally I feel this song is about the purity of the world and how we as a corporate society have royally fucked it up.
Also it demonstrates how ignorance is bliss in regards to material obsessions. He explains how inescapable the drive for material living is and how those who can ignore it are the lucky ones.
In turn he touches on how we're driven by wants or what is aesthetically pleasing creating our downfalls and invisibly destroying parts of our lives.
I agree that a majority of the song is about a finger on the panic button, needlessly. Probably to win over gullible frightened sheep.
