I think it's about how we waste the best years of our lives infront of the tv. Television numbs people hence "nothing sounds appealing". Tithe may refer to the time we waste and the gridlock refers to how television gets us nowhere yet so many people watch it. Menomena, to me, is almost a satire band that criticizes modern society. Five Little Rooms is a great example.
