What's this song about?

1
When we hid out behind the risers at the high school
2
Working bitter calculations with a slide rule
3
The grim particulars of poisoning the swimming pool
4
The way you looked me in the eye, ready to die
5
We were becoming what we are
6
Collapsing stars
7
When we chewed up children's tylenol like bubblegum
8
Till our hearts were beating deep and rich as kettle drums
9
We knew if we waited long enough the change would come
10
And then the day did come, and at last
11
Hold tight
12
Hold fast
13
Catch lightning in a jar
14
Collapsing stars
15
Told you to load up on provisions
16
We wouldn't be back for a while
17
Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
18
Turn toward the camera and smile, smile, smile
19
When we ditched the plan to poison all our enemies
20
Tucked our weapons in a clearing, and covered them with leaves
21
We are gonna come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaths one day
22
Well we are on our way
23
You can look
24
But you won't find
25
Another love like i
