  lol Kea, you are clueless... he is an Atheist, and these lyrics are Not about the bible, they are about the delusion's of the religious, and political corruption... sigh

  In my interpretation this lyric, or part of it, is about the illegal imigration problems that the EUA and Europe face. The first verses fit well into this interpretation, as well as the music, in the case of the mexican immigration in the EUA.
  the walls are real in the Mexico-EUA frontier.

  But who knows? this just my contribution.
  I found this band a bit late, but I am liking them alot. Well played music, nice lyrics, good alternative rock.

  In the third paragraph instead of "Break these walls down," it says "Dreak." Great song though.

  "Do not deny that you live and let die" is a reference to the hypocrisy of American religion, which advocates compassion for the poor, etc. while massive economic inequality is still present and very little is successfully done about it, yet people refuse to admit this fact. Frankly, I believe that this song is directed at the flaws of religion. But, then again, it's certainly open to interpretation (now if that doesn't sound like a Theologian, I don't know what does).

  The "city of delusion" is religion and religiously motivated politics, like the religious right of American politics. "I will avenge, justify my reasons with your blood" seems to reference religious fanatacism and Islamic terrorism. "Guzzl[ing] and squander[ing] what's left" seems to refer to environmental policies motizated by a deep-rooted belief that a God will pop up and end the world in a few decades so there is no reason to conserve anything.

  "All your theories turn to dust" looks to me like a critique of creationism and religious restrictions on science (Coppernicus comes to mind), claiming that creationism is doomed to failure as it is overwhelmed by evidence against it. Alternately, the word "theories" really sounds more like "fairies" to me, and perhaps this is an attack on supernaturalism, likening such beings as angels and demons to mythical fairies.

  i think it's "i will avenge" rather than "i will fight". thanks for lyrics though.

  vs 2 and 3 describe the city of delusion which is the governments etc who believe they have the power over the people, the 'all seeing eye' so-to-speak, but as he says 'you're not divine' and will eventually be fought against because they ultimately are to blame for whatever it is that is each persons particular problem with society..
  aghhh that was deep. maybe i'm wrong and its about blackholes not revelations ;)

  'shield your beliefs, touch the divine as we fall in line' sounds like when they announce no more religion, thats what the people who secretly still believe will be doing, while they 'fall in line' with what the authorities demand of them.

  heya. i love this song sooo much. will have a stab at what the lyrics mean:
  i know a guy that went to school with matt B, who said he's really spiritual person, so im guessing this is about the section of the revalation (in the bible) where the wild beast destroys the harlot babylon the Great (world government agencies including the UN destroy False Religion)

  My favourite song on the album. It shows Muse's spanishy influence. The lyrics are the best on the album in my opinion, and it works well with the music. Thank you Muse!
