How can there only be 16 comments on a song so beautiful, so powerful, so true??
The song was inspired by the death of an innocent man who was mistaken for an enemy and killed when all he actually wanted was to help. I don't know what is worse: killing someone accidentally/by mistake or killing someone because you want to...
To me, the song points out that either way, all forms of violence, are brutal, tragic and most of all useless (nothing comes from them)!
And if not you object to violence in general, perhaps you need the death of an innocent to awake you and make you re-think the methods and use of war or violence. I think that's what Sting means with "Perhaps this final act was meant to clinch a lifetime's argument..."
I totally agree with Sting (well, I always do, I think g)!
