This is a great song! I love all the melodic breaks. I think this song is about the constant conflict that is life. Individuals struggle against individuals, groups of people struggle with another, countries fight other countries. Animals struggle with each other, with people, with environmental degradation. Even within families, there are struggles to be heard, and struggles for love, appreciation and respect. One must be prepared for conflict at all turns.
The fight to control and to not be controlled is evident at all levels of life, and it is unrelenting. Even the laws of thermodynamics suggest that one must constantly do battle in order to maintain one's integrity.
I think this song captures this beautifully, from the grinding verses to the sparks of melodic beauty in the chorus and breaks. There are always pockets of victory and beauty strewn amongst the conflict. Those moments are to be savored, especially because they are fleeting.
