Lyric discussion by BowieOwnsAll 

I am shocked and appauled at the fact that no one has written a single comment for this song. First off, this song is amazing and I often feel like this. The song seems to be about Bowie focusing on only one person himself. The world revolves around him, and this is because he is not interested in the rest of the world. He is confused by the way the world works, by the way society thinks, the concept of religion, it all is confusing and these thoughts are pulling his mind slowly towards insanity like quicksand. The ending says to just give up and do not think of these things and to not fool yourself with false ideals because you're only hurting yourself. Everything will be clarified in due time(death).
