Verse 2:

Seize
All the records from the
Past
Hold for ransom all the
Artifacts
This ragged town protects
Them to the last
With lies, lies

Verse 3:

Deem
All the liars in your tribe
To be the fires on the
Western side
of some old front we call
the war of art

Verse 1 again with the last two lines repeated three times.

I agree with KC2727 on this. Whether it is about Kurt or not...I get that feeling when I listen to this. Tin angels falling down- abrupt end to nirvana. Why wont they let us be ourselves- Kurt felt he was selling people short by putting on an act for the sake of "sales" and "fans" The line about potential is really reminds me about Nirvana. How they came into the musical world seemingly almost as prophets of sorts. Song just really gets me thinking.
