This song is about questioning your faith and wondering about life after death and heaven and hell. The line, "Sweet berries ready for two" is about Adam and Eve; the simple chorus of "Do we, do we know, when we fly, when we, when we go, do we die" is about ascending to heaven.
The song deals with how people use religion to forget about worldly problems and not worry about the now.
The video was made after System bass player Shavo Odadjian had a dream about a boy offering a girl berries, not knowing the berries were poisonous. Odadjian directed it in collaboration with Howard Greenhalgh, who has also worked with Placebo, Soundgarden and Muse. The video is mostly about the carrying on of life.
