goes great with the watchmen trailer but i dont think either this one or the end is the beginning is the end are actually about Batman.

Ironically if you think about it, the meaning does come closer to an analogy of the watchmen or Plato's 'Republic'.

But I just think he's just singing about himself and how he doesnt understand his love interest or the world he's a part of.

Also i reckon it's "Does it make you happy? You're so strange." rather than "Does it make you happy that you're so strange"

Either way both of these song kick some musical fucking ass.

why specifically does the republic come to your mind? I can't see it, but I'd be interested in your reasons :)
