This song makes me think of the scene from the Sheltering Sky when Port is walking through the streets of a North African port town and looking at all the poor people and wondering what they are thinking and feeling guilty about his Americanism and feeling disillusioned by his irrational belief that somehow the poor people in this world have me insight into humanity that escapes people in overdeveloped countries, but he concludes that they are just as confined by culture, influenced by money, driven to fail, and destined to die as himself. This song is sort of the answer to his dilemma.
