First, I fixed the many, many errors that were in the lyrics. I think if someone considers themselves a critical listener they should have an audio system capable of allowing them to hear what they're listening to. The lyrics are very clear and obvious on this song when played through any decent setup. And of course, being able to hear the lyrics correctly goes a long way toward identifying the meaning :)
As to the meaning, let's do a little research first: It turns out that this song was released just after the Columbia Space Shuttle catastrophe and I'm 95% certain that is what this is about. I think it's an absolutely beautiful tribute to those who gave their lives to explore and understand our existence in this universe.
