Now that I have listened to the song more I knowbelieve this song is more about the soldiers than the war. I'm not taking back what I said before but idk it just seems more likely because the soldiers are being worked to death, they have to be in a great amount of pain both mental and physical, so their bodies would be burning, they feel desolate b/c they are lonely or from other factors, yearning to return home or just to see their buddies return to base alive. Dying of anticipation b/cany step they take could be their last orjust eager to foght or get home, and choking from intoxication is kinda obvious. I highly doubt the burning rubble cannot be good for you, maybe even the B. O. , rubble, smell of vomit or other things could have them gasping for fresh air. This is just a kinda theory so don't yell and say I konw nothing ok please.

I understand where you are coming from Dragonwingz. About the armenian war. But! You really need to go back and watch the video again if you believe its about that or even just that it is obviously about the wa in Iraq. At the beginning of the video it shows how a toy plane flies into 2 towers this is a dead give away, and also when they pull down the giant teddy bear off the big block which represented the soldiers ripping down the giant statue of Saddam Hussein that this song is about is about this most recent war. This song talks about us as the people, the civilians need to remove our heads from our back sides and see what kind of living hell we are putting these people through for nothing. B/c these people had nothing to do with this war or the twin towers it was a group from Afghanistan. But! You cannot hold an entire country accountable for a few peoples doing. But! We also need to see that where these terrorist learned to fly was from an american aviation school. That's right made my stomach turn when I found that out too. Once again this is a song about how people need to realize war isn't a very dignified way to settle differences and that we should not be listening to corporate america telling us this war is completely reasonable and is for our freedom b/c that is total bs. Defending our freedom my rump all we are doing is removing these poor peoples freedom, and stealing from them on the other hand some wars have a good reason to an extent but this particular war has absolutley no point. Overall this is a brilliant song.
