The song is about how people's ignorance makes them self-destructive, perpetuating cycles of corruption. The subject is trying to find a way out of the mess, wondering if they are alone in realization of what's going on. Eventually they are resigned to the fact that they are alone, so they want to escape reality, and thus "consign to oblivion". Or put bluntly, die.
