Once again I think this song is pretty much autobiographical and about the band itself. The album "Reactionary" has always sounded very angry and bitter to me (the title meaning backwards looking should have been a hint), it was like "Ignorance Is Bliss" is the type of record the band always wanted to make and they were really proud of it and then they got dumped on for it by a lot of their fans and their label, etc. and were almost forced to return to a more conventional punk rock sound in order to salvage their career and they resented it.
Disappointment's what you've made this, my ambitions so deflated sounds like Trever saying a big screw you to the more reactionary members of his fanbase to me.
