Fairly straightforward lyrics. We as people will never be able to reach our full potential because no matter which country is the "leader" of the world there will still be wars fought for no reason. Global powers have come and gone throughout the course of history and we haven't learned from their mistakes.

I love the lyric, you and me fall in line to be punished for unproven crimes. People will almost always believe what propaganda is thrown in front of them by their own country and then when it's revealed they were wrong it's ultimately the people who must pay the price for their leaders' mistakes.
