I think this song is categorizing people. People who "live in the end", whatever that means, are people who are able to live their life without looking back and dwindling on the past. This could be in a good thing or bad. I think OAR is trying to say that living in the end isn't a good thing. Marc uses the lyric "don't you ever wanna see some change" to illuminate the fact the people who act before thinking and don't realize it are going to keep making the same mistakes and not ever realize causing them to be unable to change themselves for the better. He takes this further in the lyric "he didn't see it coming, that's the tale of his life" by trying to say that people who don't regard their past and are unable to see the flaws in it will also be unable to see whats in store for them in the future. This song holds great meaning and I simply love the message of it.
