Three, five, zero, one, two, five go!
I was there in the back stage
When the light came around
I grew up like a changeling
To win the first time around
I can see all the weakness
I can pick all the faults
Well, I concede all the faith tests
Just to stick in your throats
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
Hung around in your soundtrack
To mirror all that you've done
To find the right side of reason
To kill the three lies for one
I can see all the cold facts
I can see through your eyes
All this talk made no contact
No matter how hard we tried
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
I can still hear the footsteps
I can see only walls
I slid into your man-traps
With no hearing at all
I just see contradiction
Had to give up the fight
Just to live in the past tense
To make believe you were right
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
Three, five, oh, one, two, five
I was there in the back stage
When the light came around
I grew up like a changeling
To win the first time around
I can see all the weakness
I can pick all the faults
Well, I concede all the faith tests
Just to stick in your throats
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
Hung around in your soundtrack
To mirror all that you've done
To find the right side of reason
To kill the three lies for one
I can see all the cold facts
I can see through your eyes
All this talk made no contact
No matter how hard we tried
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
I can still hear the footsteps
I can see only walls
I slid into your man-traps
With no hearing at all
I just see contradiction
Had to give up the fight
Just to live in the past tense
To make believe you were right
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
Three-one-G
Three, five, oh, one, two, five

"Can anyone tell me what the significance of the numbers is?"
350125 was Rudolf Hess's Prisoner of War serial number after he made his bizarre parachuting adventure into Scotland in the early 1940s. I'm not exactly sure what Rudolf Hess has to do with Warsaw (since as far as I know, he never even set foot in the place), but based on the presence of the numbers, I would say that the song itself refers to Rudolf Hess's admiration/emulation of Adolf Hitler -- his boss and onetime cellmate in the prison they were sent to after the aborted Beer Hall Putsch in the 20s -- and how his increasing dissatisfaction with Hitler's statesmanship and his prosecution of World War II eventually led him to flee the country and attempt to end the war on his own terms without even consulting his superior officer(s). Needless to say, that didn't work out so well for him.
