Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Goodbye old friend, my paranoid
We'll meet again someday
Life is running out,
I guess I had enough
I need to go now
I used to live in a house of glass
Where no one comes or goes
Watching life outside
I used to stand behind the door
And hope the wind won't blow
And mess my fears around
It took me some to find out where to hide it
Music like rain,
over my deepest feelings
Are you faking it
Music like rain, over my deepest feelings
Are you faking it
Faking Life
Goodbye old friend my paranoid
We'll meet again someday
Life is running out
I guess I had enough I need to go now
We'll meet again someday
Life is running out,
I guess I had enough
I need to go now
I used to live in a house of glass
Where no one comes or goes
Watching life outside
I used to stand behind the door
And hope the wind won't blow
And mess my fears around
It took me some to find out where to hide it
Music like rain,
over my deepest feelings
Are you faking it
Music like rain, over my deepest feelings
Are you faking it
Faking Life
Goodbye old friend my paranoid
We'll meet again someday
Life is running out
I guess I had enough I need to go now

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
This sounds like a well made mix of Coma Divine and The Incident PT. I love it.
