Double Agent Lyrics

I think this song is about choices. It is very hard sometimes to make a choice specially when you know that you could harm someone. Sometimes you want to do something that you know is not perfectly right:

My precious sense of honor Just a shield of rusty wire

My precious sense of rightness Is sometimes so naive

So it is very hard to decide between darkness and light.....
