An initial interpretation after only listening to the song twice;
I would say it's about the western world and it's delusions. "We" come up with different rules. Invisible slaves (mortgages, loans etc) leaving only a few having all of the fun in the end. Is there no way down? Can't we find a way to see what really is without having to pull out gold teeth out? Find compassion and still keep our way of living.
"What have we done?
How'd we get so far from the sun?
Lost, lost in an oscillating phase
Where a tiny few catch all of the rays"
"Out beyond the western squalls" it's different. (Buddhism).
