In this powerful track, A Perfect Circle challenges societal norms and critiques modern values through a dark, satirical lens. The song juxtaposes traditional Christian Beatitudes with grim realities, suggesting that virtues like meekness and mercy are now disadvantageous or "doomed" in today's world. Instead, it portrays a society that rewards greed, lust, and envy—traits typically condemned. This stark reversal serves as a commentary on the corruption and moral decay perceived by the band in contemporary culture. The refrain "Good luck, you're on your own" underscores a sense of abandonment by divine or moral guidance, emphasizing individual isolation in facing these harsh truths.
