To me this song is NOTHING to do with relationships or dreams.... I instantly was convinced that this song is about reincarnation, death and progress to the next stage after this life. Especially when you consider the position of this song on the album, it comes right after "give up the ghost" which seems to be about the actual proccess of dying and saying goodbye. Then we have the reincarnation with this song; it starts off on a completely new, self-assured, uplifting tone. "It's like I'm falling out of bed From a long, weary dream" he's falling off this earth, as the long and tiring events of life have come to an end "The sweetest flowers and fruits hang from trees" the sweetest things take time to come around. our lives are the fruits, and earth is the tree. we grow larger and more developed over time, eventually our bodies become withered/rotten, and finally we fall off in to the unknown. "Finally I'm free of all the weight I've been carrying" All the petty indulgent problems that we see as weight carrying us down are completely meaningless in the big picture. In advancement to the next stage, we are free of these closed-minded "problems." "As my woman blows her cover In the eye of the beholder I'm a fish now out of water Falling off a giant bird that's been carrying me" as my guardian angel reveals herself in the eyes of god i'm a human now escaped from earth falling off a a giant ball that flies through the solar system and carries us all "And if you think this is over Then you're wrong" If you think death is the end then you're wrong |
