Basically I think this songs underlining meaning is about the government and censorship, mainly because the words relate to a man in a suite possibly referring to the government "Day by day There's a man in a suit Who's gonna make you pay For the thoughts That you think and the words They won't let you say". In other words people are not allowed to stand up and speak out without there being consequences. "I don't believe in magic Life is automatic But I don't mind being on my own". Not believing in "magic" and saying that "life is automatic" may suggest that people have become consumed by the fact that their words and thoughts are no longer taken into account by the government etc."I don't mind being on my own" refers to a sense of isolation and not counting for nothing, basically meaning your just another brick in the wall, the songs title says it all...LISTEN UP!
