| Simple enough, society is a machine and we're all trapped in it. Whether we know it or not. | |

| I would agree that this song is aimed at what the media makes up about people, certainly on behalf of himself, but also others suffering, what they do. But when he says "I guess i chose to" it refers to the fact that he choose this life maybe? When he says "Hope I teach my son how to be a man Now before he hits 35" it possibly refering to what the media says about him being gay or what not, which is supposedly a result of him not being masculine enough, so if he shows his son how to be a man he wont be gay, hence "Hope I teach my son how to be a man" i dunno im probably wrong. | |

| I agree that it's about how we're all trapped in the Big Machine, but this is specifically about Scott's trouble with the Big Machine. | |

| About Scott and his portrayal by the media. "He's a faggot boy, The TV says so..." About how he's constantly thought of being gay when he's been married twice and has 2 kids. | |
