It is about lonelyness, he cannot find his soul in the crowded place. Soilwork and In Flames made the videos together, and they are good friends in real life. SOILWORK VS. IN FLAMES FOREVER

I don't think it was them copying, I'd say they were all hanging out on tour or something and one of them came up with the idea of a matching video.

this song has nothing to do with breaking up or established relationships of any kind. as the title suggests it is about playing the "rejection role". a guy that just really likes being around a girl, he dreams about her, he doesnt think he deserves her. "I'm a sinner, a winner, my blood is getting thinner I might as well get another life cause I've been there" but he wants her and he knows she would be happy with him. he is "Coming straight out of nothing, just killing time Facing those walls so black, so vile" which means his last relationship was painful. but he doesnt expect this girl to want him, he can pretend and say he is just killing time, but the girl represents the black and vile walls. as the line "On my way to a created perfection I penetrate the gates of rejection" he is praying for a happy ending.

not soilwork's hardest song ever but i love the lyrics.. i think they describe a breakup.. the title gives it away i think.. and the lyrics describe it.. anger, lonliness.. just waiting for "something" to come out of "nothing" that is left behind

Sounds like someone just awakening from a coma, and is now going bad, really bad. Amazing song btw.
