What's this song about?

1
I've been running all my life
2
Like a chicken heading for the knife
3
Inside the farmer's pen
4
Most of me was left behind
5
In school where I first learnt to write
6
With my father's pen
7
Mighty was the sword I thrust
8
Until the words betrayed my trust
9
And secrets gave away
10
I was young and juvenile
11
Inferno hot and volatile
12
I had so much to say
13
And the children in the park are playing
14
Suspiciously they look to me
15
Like headstones in a graveyard swaying
16
Sometimes it is hard to see
17
That all we have is what we need
18
I'm always wanting more
19
When you're lost with no one else
20
It doesn't help to find yourself
21
It helps to find the door
22
And the children in the graveyard are playing
23
And the headstones are silently waiting
24
History is littered with
25
Has-beens who have never lived
26
Do not look away
27
This could be your destiny
28
Unless you learn that you are free
29
And leave behind the chains
30
And the children in the graves are playing
31
And the headstones are the only thing staying (x4)
