I think this song is about the ignorance and fear that mankind has and his attempts to control his environment from superstitious behaviour. So the sacrificial bonfire is man's attempt to understand and make changes in his environment, but it's done in a way that seems almost absurd. We just don't have the answers to life. Fantastic song from an amazing album!!
