I always thought that the song meant this:
There are so many people trying to force you to see what they see and be someone your not in this world. It's saying if you close your eyes you see what you want to see and who you are. The song tells of the realization of someone who was a pawn but took controll of his/her life. It's a deep song with a great meaning and riff. Utmost respect to SOTY and Jim Johnson.
