The meaning I found was about the war in Iraq explain that the title "Empty Walls" represents Iraq and that it is empty there because there is no reason for us to be there. The next line "Pretentious Adventures, dismissive apprehension" meaning it's made to seem like a "big" deal that we truly need to be in Iraq. "Dismissive Apprehension" he talks about the fear and dislike of terrorists. "Don't waste your time on coffins today" meaning that we shouldn't waste our time making coffins because there's too many people dying. "Don't you see their bodies burning" referring to the heat in Iraq and the death of innocent people. "Desolate and full of yearning" Iraq is very empty, and the soldiers are yearning to be home. "Dying of anticipation, choking from intoxication" Dying of waiting to be back home with their family and friends, and intoxication meaning the dust and debris there. Other than the lyrics the video also has a lot of meaning refer to the war. In the video Tankian uses children to represent the soldiers. The reason he uses children is because parents see their kids as young and as small children.
