What's this song about?

1
Words by Neil Peart, Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
2
I see the Middle Kingdom between Heaven and Earth
3
Like the Chinese call the country of their birth
4
We all figure that our homes are set above
5
Other people than the ones we know and love
6
In every place with a name
7
They play the same territorial game
8
Hiding behind the lines
9
Sending up warning signs
10
The whole wide world
11
An endless universe
12
Yet we keep looking through
13
The eyeglass in reverse
14
Don't feed the people
15
But we feed the machines
16
Can't really feel
17
What international means
18
In different circles
19
We keep holding our ground
20
In different circles
21
We keep spinning round and round
22
We see so many tribes -- overrun and undermined
23
While their invaders dream of lands they've left behind
24
Better people -- better food -- and better beer
25
Why move around the world when Eden was so near?
26
The bosses get talking so tough
27
And if that wasn't evil enough
28
We get the drunken and passionate pride
29
Of the citizens along for the ride
30
They shoot without shame
31
In the name of a piece of dirt
32
For a change of accent
33
Or the colour of your shirt
34
Better the pride that resides
35
In a citizen of the world
36
Than the pride that divides
37
When a colourful rag is unfurled
