it makes no sense to me! i love the song, but it's bothering me that i can't understand it! here are the lyrics:
He’s a stranger to some
And a vision to none
He can never get enough,
Get enough of the world
For a fortune queen
But it’s hard to amend
How it ends and
On his face is a map of the world
(A map of the world)
On his face is a map of the world
(A map of the world)
From yesterday, it’s coming!
From yesterday, the fear!
From yesterday, it calls him
Fighting off the world all around he can pay attention
On a mountain, a city, not a gold, nor blood
He can learn, see the life that it turn
From the count to the one
He’s decided when he’s done with the air
On his face is a map of the world
(A map of the world)
On his face is a map of the world
(A map of the world)
From yesterday, it’s coming!
From yesterday, the fear!
From yesterday, it calls him
Fighting off the world all around he can pay attention
Fighting off the world all around he can pay attention
Fighting off the world all around he can pay attention
Fighting off the world all around he can pay attention
On his face is a map of the world
From yesterday, it’s coming!
From yesterday, the fear!
From yesterday, it calls him
Fighting off the world all around, he can pay attention
From yesterday,
From yesterday,
From yesterday, the fear
From yesterday,
From yesterday
Fighting off the world all around he can pay attention

My take on it is, it's about a man who is taken for granted, but is confronted by everyone for advice/help. He gives, but he never gets, and all he seeks is the the gratification of the beauties of the world. Thus "He's a stranger to some and a vision to none." Also, the chorus explains that all... "On his face is a map of the world", kind of like something "written" on someones forhead screaming "used, abused, b****, etc." However, of course everyone elses take is going to be different, but next time I talk to Jared, I'll ask him where his mind was at the time. If you missed them at the Taste of Chaos, you missed out.... They finally got a large enough area that allowed them to show off their stage show as well as their stage presence. Amazing!

As men live, they become wiser yet no one pays attention to them. Learn by the lesson of those elder to you.
