    Always feels relevant. Last time I listened to this it was on a burned cd when my personal world was burning ( 15 years back) . Now a cold dark wind blows as the wild world melts and I’m so glad this song was here for me to find again and move to.

    Level 2 - Illuminati/etc stuff of a world "on fire and there's no driver at the wheel" aka leader
    Level 3 - The life of an everyman, how abysmal the life of a button pusher is
    Level 4 - The abyss and nondirection humanity has

I fear that the darkness may actually come, that we are meandering through the last days, not because of some powerful men or gods watching from above, but because of the apathy of John Doe.
