The guy who made the video wasn't trying to relate the meaning of the song to his video. It is simply a video of his move set to the song.

He does not want to be something to be used by society ("I am not..") He repeats this refrain to convince himself. He just wants to be free, on the road, away from disengenous relationships, "friends and liars". Yet he cannot truly get away from the world that has hurt him and/or which he feels distanced from. "Still too close to you I feel". Even after millions of miles you cannot run away from love, relationships, things that tie you permanently to the world of other people.

While mavrick is right in that we can only guess as to the true meaning of the song, the lyrics point to some good clues. The opening line suggests a disgust with modern society, both people ("swine") and material things ("pearls"). Pearls could also mean women, of course. The narrator seems to desire solitude, and time for himself, for he feels "no sorrow or pity for leaving" and enjoys being "alone in the hills".

Relax Mr. Audioslave, please do educate us all with your insight on the meaning of this song. Since i am sure you sat down next to Chris Cornell as he wrote this song?
