Regina Spektor – Après Moi Lyrics 15 years ago
I have areally stong idea that this song is about a soldier. He's saying that he is fighting only to live because he knows he is no longer fighting for himself. He is fighting for those who own him. "You can't break that which isn't yours"

The second section, "be afraid of the lame..." I believe is about the different things that could kill him. Disease, Old age, the cold.
Its very second world war, the russian sort of reiterates that.
