This song works on some sort of visceral level. Though the more I look at it, the more I must have no idea what it means.

Lots of dangerous sounding things being described. Ruins must of got that way somehow, and bombs seem a likely culprit, They are both doing it. Then the suggestion that it could all be done again next year.
