"Quick, runaway, hide, before they see you" - don't let yourself be sucked into the shambles that is the government nowadays, making out that they are like hunters.
"It's all a glow" - its all a front.
"Walking on water seems perilous now
You’ve got my trust, and it feels, and it feels
Like sabotage, but I’m pulling triggers back on myself" - a stab at how religion is ignored in politics, everythings made out to be a danger or a threat. he knows its a 'sabotage' but it's all he knows and all he hears so he accepts it like everything else.
"And it feels so real from the outside looking in" - everythings so over-publicized, carefully crafted and shoved in your face it seems so real
"Tyrant" - are the leaders tyrants? for doing whats easy instead of what's right? or is it him .. for taking the easy option and believing what they say rather than fight it.
"stained with apathy, i'm blind but i can see" - people are uncaring about whether what they hear and see everyday is a sham. they just get on with it. they are blind to the manipulation, yet they see what is wanted for them to see.
"gonna bring you all the answers, quick turn around, look" - they will give you all the answers they think you should know to give them power.
yes maybe i sound a little irrational. i'm very anti media + government at this moment so may be bias but this was the message i got from the song as soon as i listened to it. even the riff, like a quick paced beat of the fast lives we live - or a heart beat, on edge from the dangers we are led to fear.
basically religion v. politics. and how you cant seem to support both. will he take the easy route? (tyranny) or fight for his beliefs.
i see this song more as a political attack.
