I see this as a song about a person who sees the world changing around him and when given opportunities to accept that change, he instead doubles down on his own beliefs that he has always held. This is seen in lyrics like: "I've got a firm grip...burrowed deep in reality." "And with confidence declare your state of perfect mental health." And, "My world picture is exemplary."
One of the more beautiful BR songs with their use of harmonies and certainly a stand-out on 'Age of Unreason.'
