i believe this song is talking about war, and what sparks war. she starts off with how something starts with a feeling then a thought and then a word and how that word grows and grows into a "battle cry" and that to me is how just one thought can spark a revolution which can lead into war. i think the next stanza or verse is applicable to any person who fights in a war, and she makes it personal "no need to say goodbye" is what she's saying to the person who she loves. she's saying it's okay and that they'll come back soon. and she's talking to this person and saying all you can do is know who truly loves you...and fight for them. i think with the "pick a star" thing she's just saying that they should have a goal, a light, to fight for and finally the part about "now we're back at the beginning" is talking about how another war is starting. how people always forget the tragedy and losses and how they are going to fight for one idea- whether it is great and noble or petty and stupid. i think she is saying how we should re-evaluate instead of jumping into war. "just because they can't feel it too doesn't mean that you have to forget" the lines that speak most to me are definitely "no need to say goodbye" that really resonates. this song basically made the ending of narnia. it was put in at exactly the right moment. :) |

amen, siobs! have you ever read ayn rand. what you wrote reminds me of what she said in her book the fountainhead "to say 'i love you' one must be able to say the 'i'" and i am with the majority here thinking that the "this is how it works..you peer inside yourself" line is amazing. she is amazing, and oh so talented. |

before, i didn't really pay attention to this song (it was on my best friend's myspace) because i thought his voice was whiny and annoying, but now that i listen to his lyrics i'm in love with it. it's really hard knowing that you're gonna part with someone you love so his lines about "I'm afraid that I'll spend the better part of next year scared that i might need you." really hit me because that is exactly what i'm scared of. also his line about his memories are like "poison ripening with age" because sometimes the memories of the person we love are just too sweet. |
