This track by Interpol paints a picture of disillusionment and frustration. The recurring phrase "everything is wrong" suggests a deep dissatisfaction with the state of the world or perhaps personal circumstances. References to "inverse achievements" and "taking apart the best of us" indicate feelings of regression and loss, implying that progress has been made in the wrong direction. The plea to "start over as agents of peace" could be seen as a call for change or renewal. Ultimately, this song seems to grapple with feelings of despair and hopelessness, while also expressing a desire for transformation and improvement.
