The first DT song I ever heard and it got me hooked on them.
I view the lyrics as being about someone who doesn't fit in and is outcasted by society. "The fate of my art, condemned". To the people who do know him, he a "gallery" of spectacular qualities. "Every picture holds a tale; Every shade tells a thousand words". Yet he only sees himself as the public does. He get rid of all the qualities that make him unique to try and fit in with everyone. "Burning my art".
