This song struck a deep chord with me the first time I heard it.
For me, it was a simple yet chilling reminder, that your conscience will keep gnawing at you, if you refuse to "wise up".
That you must learn and grow from the choices you make in life.
That no self-indulgence will help you escape the consequences of your actions or lack thereof.
That before it's too late, you have got to figure out what you need in your life (in order to be at peace), otherwise, your list of regrets is "not going to stop" growing longer and longer.
That you must "give up" the delusion that the disquiet you feel is "going to stop".
Because the only solution is to "wise up".
Therein lies the Solace your Soul ultimately seeks.
feel free to comment on my interpretation, thanks.

Seriously though...your words struck me just as still as the song itself. It's actually kind of frightening in a way...I'm not sure if that means I'm just not ready to "wise up" and do what needs to be done, whatever that is, or if it means I absolutely need to do that or shit's gonna get worse.

@c0smicl0gic It's a little late in the game for me and I experience wising up as a process oft needed. Your comments are very relevant from my viewing seat. Just want to say, wising up is better than adding another regret. No, it's not easy, but compared to the alternatives, I choose it.

In other words: thanks for making me think!
