This is my favorite song ever, Matt's voice is soooo powerful and no matter what he sings, the meaning is clear.
I think this song is saying that "Man" as a race, with all the time we have had, and the resources we had to us, are still just pathetic compared to what we could have been at this point.
The human race must evolve if we are going to progress.
"Its up to you and the path you chose, to be led to the slaughter or lead the way", We have the power to change the fate of the human race, whether we chose to progress as a whole or destroy our self's, its up to us.
"But in mass they do regress, a constant downward slope", As individuals, we may progress, but as an entire race, we are falling.
