This song has a more literal meaning to me. There are four clear divisions in the song and I always imagine the span of seasons happening throughout the course of the song. Starting with autumn and its gloomy chill, the sky is getting grey and the leaves are turning yellow, red, and brown and falling off the trees. then the snow begins to fall for winter and the mood lightens a little (I love snow so maybe it's just me) everything is peaceful and calmer. then when the distortion kicks in its like spring bursting onto the scene with the snow melting, leaves growing on trees, flowers blooming, animals coming out of hibernation and everyone is excited about the warmth coming back. then, just like in reality, the division between spring and summer is less clear but towards the end of the song i can always feel the heat pounding down like mid august with the heat rising off the pavement and mirages in the distance...it's an amazing song and to me it's a beautiful portrait of the flow from autumn to summer...I don't think the meaning needs to be deeper than that. What's deeper than life and nature anyways?
