Back to Eden Lyrics

I think this song is about always wanting more than what can be given to you. "We can bring you back to Eden", must be the greatest wish of humanity. But we don't look for it, if we find something we keep looking for something "better", we fight each other to find the ultimate truth, Freedom fighting Freedom.

Second verse is a hopeful prayer that maybe humanity will learn what's important, not having to "live a life on the run". But the third verse states that no humanity won't learn from its mistakes, we are forever doomed.
