Aviv: "It's about the way I've seen people around me. All the people that are not really living the life. Only going to work, coming back, going to nice parties and stuff. [...] like a stupid and easy way to live your life."
Pretty self-explanatory if you ask me, although he said it's complicated. Nevertheless it's definitely a theme that everyone may feel different about. It doesn't seem like he believes that he achieved much more than that either, maybe that's the part he means with 'complicated'. The parts about himself sound very frustrated and depressed, so although there is reason for that there still lies the question if that is really the better way. The first and last two lines give it a kind of hopeless touch that sounds to me like "In the end we are all nothing. Our lives are meaningless.". If that's the case asking more from life would be useless as well, but on the other hand it just seems so stupid if all you think about is what to do in the next party. I always have the song 'dancers to a discordant system' by Meshuggah in my mind when I see those lines, the title says it all. It seems wrong in so many ways.
That's the whole thing that's always running through my head while listening to this song. On the one hand blaming the stupidity you see around you everyday, on the other hand you cannot find any deeper meaning in life anyway. You feel like an observer in a world full of meaninglessness and stupidity.
