One of my favorite interpretations of this song is how it is used in Breaking Bad.
The song is played at the end of the episode "The Cat's in the Bag", as many people know.
I've always liked to think of it as a representative point in the series, after Walt commits his first murder. He's digging himself into a hole, and after that point in the series it only begins to get deeper and deeper for himself and Jesse. The gas mask the child picks up as the song plays is one of the first pieces of evidence that Hank begins to build his case against Heisenberg, or Walter unknowingly.
