Cover art for Man Vs. Ape lyrics by Eyedea

"We think we're advanced but there's nowhere to go

I think this should be "We think <i>we'll</i> advance, but there's nowhere to go"

I think this is about mankind is destroying the world and we're completely oblivious that we're doing so. Despite all of our attempts to "save" the world, we're not going anywhere but backwards. The world is a fucked up place, and there's no fixing the damage we've inflicted upon it. We're nothing more than what we evolved from - Apes. We like to kid ourselves and pretend that we're in control of what we do and think, but in actuality we're just animals ourselves.

Sorry if this doesn't make any sense, I can't figure out how to word my interpretation properly.
