According to the Guiding Light Songfacts , lyrically this power ballad is influenced by the love story between Winston Smith and Julia in George Orwell’s novel about a future repressive totalitarian regime, 1984.

Don't like it at all. ._. It doesn't have that special Muse sound I'd like it to have. It's nothing special at all. It just.. is.

When I first heard this song I got a strong deja vu, and I still can't shake it off. Why does this sound so strangely familiar? ._.

Yeah, drums bring much originality to the song. It's not the weakest one, believe me. I even cried listening to it one day, 'cause I fely "lost and crushed and cold and confused" - btw, one of the best their quotes although it's quite simple.
