First off, Epic song....I mean, holy shit is this an epic song.
I think michaela12345 hit the more obvious point right on the head and it stemmed from jaydawgtwo04 's observation of poor encounters with the warped tour bands.
I however would like to throw out an idea completely from left field that is most likely NOT correct but it is fun to play with:
The Three Little Pigs
I came to this conclusion from the following
1) Sticks and Bricks were what two of the pigs built their houses out of leaving Straw
2) The chorus is from the perspective of the pig that built his house out of straw i.e. "Where were you when my walls came falling down"
3) The Verses are from the Wolf a very angry beast on a campaign for bloodlust.
Obviously this is an emotionally unstable wolf with induced parinoid delusions of the pigs taking from him and lying to him...but HEY! how did the pigs afford the material to build their houses? perhaps they did steal from the wolf.
Anyway, it's NOT the actual meaning for the song but I do think its fun to imagine the wolf screaming at the first little pig as the pigs neighboring brothers listen to the pleas of the unfortunate straw pig call for their help.
