Is it me or has Ed completely become whoever he is talking to in The Ride? Or did I just completely misunderstand the song?

I really like The Ride, again V for me is an album I have a lot of emotional attachment to so that helps its case. But the music and Ed's voice I think are fantastic. I dig the Indian/Eastern sounds from it and wished Live did more of that. But the lyrics are trash, and absolutely the lyrics have become extremely ironic "we've shown the whole wide world that money's all we care for now ..... how about a stick figure drawing for $8000??"
