Lyrics
Standing round the table
Individuals gathered around a table
Spinning fables
Creating and spreading untrue stories
And signing autographs
And autographing, possibly indicating a public persona
Can't you hear them laugh
Mocking laughter, potentially at the expense of others
Ha ha ha ha ha
Emphasizing laughter
In their secrecies
In hidden agendas or concealed actions
They plan their strategies
Devising plans and tactics
It's called hypocrisy
Referring to their actions as hypocritical
And we believe
People, in general, tend to believe these actions
Mornings
Mentions of mornings, possibly a time of revelation
They tell me everything
Receiving comprehensive information
That I need to know
Everything one needs to know
Or I care to know
Suggesting a limitation in what one cares to know
Well I can visualize
Visualizing emotions or situations
The look in your eyes
Implies understanding through eye contact
The horror
An intense, possibly horrifying experience
As the plane goes down
Refers to a plane crash
And the siren sounds
Alarm signals
We can't believe
Expressing disbelief or skepticism
We can't believe
Reiteration of disbelief
In the east where the bear is dancing
Symbolic references to geopolitical regions
In the west where the eagle flies
-In the middle we stand our ground
Remaining steadfast amid external pressures
The forces pull us down down down
External forces causing a downward pull
Tensions on both sides
High tensions leading to a state of helplessness
We're paralyzed and victimized
Feeling trapped and targeted
We're terrified and petrified
Overwhelmed by fear and rigidity
Demoralized and mortified
Feeling disheartened and humiliated
Of genocide and suicide
Mentions of various forms of killing and despair
And patricide and cyanide
References to familial, national, and self-destruction
We're pacified by every side
Being pacified or subdued by all sides
Force-fed pride and then we die for them
Being fed a false sense of pride and sacrificing for others
We die for them
Reiteration of sacrificing for others
In the east where the bear is dancing
Symbolic references to geopolitical regions
In the west where the eagle flies
-In the middle we stand our ground
Remaining resolute despite external pressures
The forces pull us down down down
External forces causing a downward pull
We believe
Reaffirmation of belief, possibly sarcastic or disillusioned
