I personally interpreted it as the player being something like chemo (likely destroying a lot of stuff that doesn't need to be destroyed, but ultimately killing the infection), and the things we were destroying are cancer (looks like a natural part of the scene except for being in the wrong spot). That's not to discount your interpretation however, and either way I get the sense there's more to it than just the cancer metaphor.
