Easily the best song on the album and in my opinion one of their all-time best.
About being unable to connect with others and the pain/despair that that creates; how the narrator wishes to destroy his emotions to prevent the pain and yet that same wish is also part of what causes his inability to connect. A vicious cycle that leaves him wanting to blow out.
I can see this song being played in a car by a suicidal individual as he or she heads toward a cliff edge, slowly picking up speed as the song progresses and then towards the end as the guitars blare putting the pedal to the metal and gaining as much speed as possible before rocketing over the edge into the abyss below. The clangs at the end being the impacts of the car with the rocks below, perhaps with an inaudible fireball for good measure.
