According to Jonathan Meiburg at the February 4th show in Dallas, TX, this song is about "living through an election year."

@drummmar Just saw them again in Bristol, UK, where he said much the same thing. How he thought the US had "levelled-up", but with the apparently serious rise of Trump, maybe not. The song is a superb description of that conflicted feeling about one's homeland.
