I've been sitting here listening to this track over and over. I am really struck by the way the lyrics capture the duality of his character. Note how it keeps switching bewteen "I" "we" and "you."

"For all the lies you told us..." Is that referring to the ring? Or maybe Sauron?

"We are lost, we can never go home." Haunting stuff.

Depends on where it is placed, doesn't it? Remember he thought Frodo had lied to him at one point?
