Yeah I think that makes much more sense too. Does anyone have any ideas on what the song is about?
I think it could be about how we think we're making progress with science (splicing genes for example), and that everything that's new is better, without thinking about the negative (side) effects. Experimenting with nature, modifying it, "improving" it to what we like it to be, making everything artificial (alien). And even though we know it can be bad (poison in the air) we ignore it (we don't care). Maybe thinking we've come a long way in gaining knowledge and "perfecting" the world (we thought we left home), whilst we actually know very little, compared to all we don't know, and maybe we haven't made anything better (but we never departed), because maybe it's best to just let things be the way they are.
I'm not sure though, as usual.
I don't really know how this song relates to We Care. There are some links though. This one mentions "alien" and We Care mentions space ships. The songs mention caring and not caring, and being alone (we thought we were alone vs. we are alone) and the air (there's poison in the air vs. we breathe the air). There could be more links between the songs, but then I'd have to spend some more time on it.
