I heard a live version of this where he says at the start 'This is for Winston Churchill, V for Victory!', so I got it into my head that it's talking about how pre-WWII we tried to reason with the Nazi's but that didn't work and when the war started 'reason is treason' It doesn't fit in with the lyrics but there ya go! :-)

AWESOME! TOTALLY AWESOME! I saw these live in Hyde Park last night and they blew me away... so much energy and power on stage... this song is fantastic... not 100% on the meaning, i think what lindie said is the closest i have seen to making some sense out of it?! couple of errors in the lyrics above tho... its "see the left man no protection" and "tell his family that he will be ok" - however, i think that in the hidden track after u-boat it then says "tell his family that he WONT be ok"

This could be about the war on terror and the war in Iraq: "See the stones coming at my window" Terrorism. Not that major a threat to the average Briton, but very conspicuous. "Ever since then I've not been conscious to all the chains of dirt passed onto me" ...which makes people not pay attention to what their own government is doing. "Rubicon it's almost over Rubicon has come so close to me Turn back or we'll start the fire" If we go to war in Iraq it'll stir up more conflict, and it's irreversible. "See they left me no protection Tell his family that he won't be ok K! I! L-L!" The government's policies aren't offering any protection against terrorism. The last two lines might refer to someone going off to fight (and maybe die) in Iraq.
