Lost in a Lost World Lyrics

My impression is that it's about Native Americans. Their land has been taken by the Europeans (the "lost world") and they're now doing their best to live in a world where they're marginalized, although it used to be their land. Kind of a sequel to "Run to the Hills"

What tipped me off that it's about the Native Americans in particular was the lines about Buffalo and rain dances.
