Don't forget to think about this song in context to the album. While I'm sure they happened to coincide with a message of strength for the Olympics, I think this song in context to the album is one of objectivism. "An economy based on unsustainable growth" and all that, this song must be the vantage point of someone who is clearly the one crashing it into the ground. Their selfish, competitive, capitalistic ideals are crashing the world into the ground. I really love it. I love Muse, man, their album themes are so beautiful. I thought things couldn't get any better than Resistance, but I was CLEARLY wrong.
