In an interview with Gaffa, lead singer Joakim Berg explained the song's lyrics saying, "We have become a Belle Epoque-nation pointing fingers at each other, it's your fault, it's your fault". Berg further elaborated, "A friend of mine who is a political journalist says that we have become a nation of political separatists. A bunch of small groups that are all extremely offended and do not show any understanding for each other, no one wants to reconcile, nobody wants to negotiate and no one wants to compromise.[3]
