Did anyone else catch the meaning of the line "you know that ball has no sides"?
Something with no sides has no points. A ball is pointless, so to say. Which, I think, ties in with the repetitiveness of life theme this song heavily underlines. Interstate 8, like thedeity mentioned, is a metaphor for life. The entire song emphasizes how the narrator feels that life is all a cycle, it's all a loop. Isaac's even known for his cyclic ideology and lyrics.
i always took the line as a response to someone saying "the world is against me". Isaac responds with "you know a ball has no sides" meaning that the earth is just a sphere, literally with no sides, and also does not a pick a side, is not for or against the person
