Lyric discussion by frankidelic 

Verse1 This verse is about struggling with morality and emotions through the evolving life. Verse 2 here he sounds like he's viewing the band from afterlife and wanting to say sorry ("il observe with a pitiful eye") but its impossible ("a request well beyond you and i")

Verse 3 i reckon this verse is about religion, mentioning a mockery of faith maybe by a dark force?...or maybe humanity even, destroying itself by taking a wrong route in evolving? Verse 4 Could be saying here that behind religion their is control and corruption, but when people finally realize, its the end for to it. Verse 5 Here he's speaking of his present state of mind (not good) his past will determine his legacy, martyring himself for the bands legacy basically. :/ the chorus id say was Ian saying depending on faith one will burn. I personally believe he planned to check out early for a long time. his lyrics hint this. passover' means to an end' 24hrs' etc...
