Okay, wow, this is silly. First off, the song has nothing to do with Jesus, war, soldiers, or leaders. The song, for those who have any bit of clarity, is about REINCARNATION. If you look in the credits of the 30 seconds to mars album, you will notice that they thank Buddha, Jesus, and the pythagoras amongst other philosophical and religious teachers. The members of 30 seconds, at least some of them, suscribe to the ideology and doctrine of reincarnation; the believe in it and the song FROM YESTERDAY is clearly and obviously about reincarnation. From yesterday, they are talking about the affects and karma of past lives affecting this life now. The lyrics are rather cryptic but nonetheless the meaning is rather clear to anyone who has ever studied the doctrine of reincarnation. On his face is a map of the world, meaning that the individual has been through many incarnations in his time, perhaps all over the world living many lives, he has not learned his spiritual lessons and thus he is reincarnated again and again; obviously he cant "get enough of the world" a reference to the mans sins and earthly vices. Trust me, the song is about reincarnation; the band has some rather peculiar beliefs, it's all in the "thank you" section of the album booklet; many of their other songs are dedicated to similar "mystical" topics.
