In my opinion, this is one of the easiest of Gojira's songs as far as interpretation. Duplantier and the rest of Gojira are advocating one of their most prominent ideas, the idea that humans are willingly and carelessly destroying the planet at an astonishing rate. This 'Sight to behold' is simple to see yet hard to understand, hence the lines 'The way I see things is so simple' and 'But I still don't get the point'. Following the bridge of the song is a fast-paced stretch which includes the line that references the god of the underworld, Mantus. As a result of the human mindset of using the earth's resources simply for our benefit, all aspects of earth are being depleted unsustainably. The song states that as a result of these actions, 'the flood will kill us', and Mantus will rise from the underworld in anger and astonishment. My interpretation of the last four lines is that he is giving up on humanity, and is no longer trying to understand the evil that humans possess.
