It's not about chess, it's about the meaning of the phrase, thinking for a long time and when you are running low on time you often make a stupid move that is often not well thought out. They relate this to the world and world governments not to chess, even though Kotov himself was a chess player.
Its a reference to a chess grand master named Alexander Kotov. In one of his books, he described a situation when you sit and think for a long time thinking about how to proceed, but don't find a clear path. As a result, the lack of time sometimes forces you to make a mistake, or blunder.

the song is named about something in chess but the song its self has absolutely nothing to do its about the world not chess so there stop arguing about it
@grid117 its about kotov syndrome, which is if you cant make a move, or cant think of a move you could make, you make a quick, not well thought over move. the song is a metaphor for many situations like that that happen in real life.
@grid117 The phrase "Khotov Syndrome" originated in chess, but can be applied to any situation where someone spends a very long time thinking about possible outcomes for a given situation, and then when pushed for time ignores all said options and makes a very poor, hasty decision. Which applies rather neatly to the song.
@grid117 it means when someone thinks about doing somthing for a long time, and then when they cannot come up with an answer, makes a blundering mistake. its makes more sense when put that way :)

I've always wondered what "Kotov Syndrome" is.

I can see it in this song too. Good shit to RA.

It's out of sync at the start, something happened with sony vegas. it's fine at the first chorus to the end though.
