The song talks about how the world is full of money and greed, with people working meaningless jobs and fake houses that represent their fears. The media and advertising are manipulating people for profit, while big corporations control everything. The chorus is talking about how every time a bomb is dropped, it is killing innocent people and destroying the future by taking away the possibility of new life. The song questions why we have to kill our own kind and reminds us that every bomb dropped is taking away the life of a child who could have been a future hope for the world.
