"Behind a dream so rosy and red a pile of things to forget"
"Have you been hiding
In your big houses"
"We make sure we gain then we leave it"
"'Cause were a nation of forgetters"
This song sounds to me like the other side of the American Dream. Just talking about how we don't think about the bad things we've done in the past to get where we are or what's sacrificed to get the things we want. It all just seems very materialistic and fake to me. Like the Stepford Wives thing where everything's perfect and fine when really it's not.
