maybe this isnt the intended message, but the whole thing really just seems like a metaphor for existence. ruby could be a girl or just daily life. there is nothing to the past, there is nothing to hang on to.
life is essentially meaningless:
"She just can't be chained to a
life where nothing's gained and nothing's lost at such a cost"
everything is transient:
"When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you"
yet is still beautiful
so live freely and experience everything as fully as possibly while you still have the opportunity to breath. this song makes me simultaneously blissful and incredibly melancholy.
but i suppose im just projecting my own feelings onto this. plus i was listening to the version from children of men rather than the rolling stones original so that might have something to do with it.
@eatbeast@eatbeast Thank you for your spin on this song. It innately know this was a message to me as I sat on the bus to my home. I didn't know why I would just break out into song (Ruby Tuesday) clear out of the blue.
But, my divorce, as heartbreaking as it is, is almost finished. I am on the verge of starting my new life with a beautiful young lady and even though I still miss my old life, I am happy I am alive and have the potential to create my dream with my new bride.
Your interpretation has...
