Lyric discussion by obee59 

Dear all,

know it's a bit late to reply to this subject, but we all need to take our time.

Obviously, everyone here is stuck in reality and seems to have no other possible interpretation than the literality of the words.

Some efforts were made, though, by very clever ancd courageous people.

Anyway, the "soldier" should not be seen as a "man involved in a conflict" or "fighting for his nation under a flag" ...

The "soldier" in this song is a human being.

Everyone is struggling, yeah fighting, for life.

Furthermore, the One who's trying to find the High Road is a Soldier.

That One is surrounded by an army.

The Army will try to help the soldier to fight, but may also lead him to death, as it is the basic rule once you have accepted the game.

What is the game?

You may find the high road, and the high road may be a road to happiness.

Or not.

It's a song about enlightenment, defintely.

Thanks so much for that enlightenment obee59. I absolutely am stuck in my own reality, which I see is in another galaxy than that within which you dwell. Sometimes words are best interpreted entirely literally, as in "You are a pompous twit".
