The meaning of this song is pretty obvious if you listen to it several times. The song is from the point of view from the people the government has forgotten hence the lyric: "We are the children you reject and disregard". These people dont just vanish just because the governement doesnt care about them and has given up hence: "We don't disappear just because your eyes are shut". The next verse is trying to show they go through exactly the same as everyone else and feel the same things, however no one hears about it because the media dont report it hence: "Lights, Out
Because the fuse has blown"
The chorus is saying that when the government falls the people they have ignored will stand back and watch as it collapses.The crown splling down is the burecrats losing control as the people take control of their destinys.
The next verse is stating that just because the government and media ignore them, other people dont and the word will slowly spread. The song sung is people asking for help leading into the next verse which is the people blaming the government for their problems and the government not taking responsiblity and having a backbone to help.
The next verse is saying that the forgotten people are just like other people and the pains they have been through have made them better people and by the end they are no different.
The last verse is a proclemation that these people dont want everything they just want to be recognised and get some help.
