| oh, wow. Don't feel too nostalgic. We can only take so much from the past. | |

| this is a pretty good view point. But, I have to disagree. He consistently talks about "we" and what they loved. He shows more worry and necessity to catch up with someone than to enter some state of mind. | |

The song is about nostalgia. It’s because of nostalgia that he is talking to someone he was once in love with. But, it can be applied to anyone; someone you’ve had some sort of relationship with. He has a desire for a simple moment where this person takes him somewhere only they know. In order to let him in, and talk about where their lives are going. To face the facts the life is flying, they are getting old, and though they’ve ventured with or without each other; enjoying all the pleasures of life. Now is the time to get real and realize that they both need something to rely on. Whether if it’s on each other, their friendship, their love, their past, a moment, a gesture, anything, something. But, whatever it is, it has to be new beginning. They can’t end their relationship after everything that has already happened. This is where the nostalgia really plays in, because things just aren’t the way they are. He wishes everything could stay the same, but that would only mean the end of everything. It would be an empty land that you could easily map like he could map the back of his hand. So, he wants to rely on something, some new beginning. And, he wants this new spark to begin somewhere…somewhere, where the first one began. “Somewhere only they know”. Maybe not the exact same place, but somewhere only they know. |

She is talking about our businesses, government, laws, and policies. Her prison is her cubical, her jailer is her boss - She doesn't understand how this came to be, feeling like she is less than another human who's not much different from her. Since they work in the same place, wear the same attire. she knows they are in the same prison to begin with, its their job. "i have fears...you die too." - talks about how human they both are not much different Than she talks about how she is being suppressed by her boss, but he is being suppressed too and then she warns her boss not too treat everyone the same. In due time someone else who is greater than him/her will come by and do the same to him. Then she is talking about her baby wanting to be president. She is referring that the ultimate suppressor is the government. |

Am in chains you’re in chains too I wear uniforms, you wear uniforms too Am a prisoner, you’re a prisoner too Mr Jailer I have fears you have fear too I will die, you sef go die too Life is beautiful don’t you think so too Mr Jailer Am talking to you jailer Stop calling me a prisoner Let he who is without sin- Be the first to cast the stone Mr Jailer You suppress all my strategy You oppress every part of me What you don’t know, you’re a victim too Mr Jailer You don’t care about my point of view If I die another will work for you So you threat me like a modern slave Mr Jailer You don’t care about my point of view If I die another will work for you So you threat me like a modern slave Mr Jailer If you walking in a market place Don’t throw stones Even if you do you just might hit One of your own Life is not about your policies All the time So you better rearrange your Philosophies and be good to your fellow man jailer I hear my baby say I wan be president I wan chop money From my government What he don’t know Be say Mr Jailer |
