This song is about mans struggle with self awareness. To be aware of one's existance is the "sweetest curse" because we understand our mortality. The concept of concealing self with rotten meat and crowskin overcoat is a disguise to fool Death. In this torment/ march toward civilization..man has cursed its only home(mother earth) "all along the way" Mankind is the sweetest curse.
