Folding 1,000 paper cranes is a Japanese custom whereby the folder is granted a single wish (usually for good health) for their reverence/diligence. This is a very common practice at weddings, anniversaries, etc. Recently, it has also become a symbol of peace (mostly outside of Japan) because a famed child, Sadako, developed cancer as a result of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Therefore, she wished that everyone that got sick from the bomb would get better - and began to fold 1000 paper cranes. Unfortunately, she died before finishing, so her family and friends finished the folding. Now, there is a day dedicated to Sadako's wish where school children accross Japan fold cranes and send them to her grave. Thus, it has become a symbol of peace overtime. |

This is song is most likely about the comments I made about the Acceptance song "Compromise", which was on their first album. I think this song is Jason's reoccurring feelings in regards to the topic of "Compromise":
"I think this song is about Jason's (the lead singer) drummer from his first group "Day Zero". I'm not sure about the actual tension, but it's my understanding there was some real drama between the Drummer and Jason. Regardless, when Acceptance was formed, I think the drummer (who I'll leave nameless) decided to choose a new life path. The 'He' that is spoken about in this song is god, because Day Zero was a christian band, and as is evident, there are some christian undertones in Acceptance's music. Jason wants god to show the drummer the way, not leave the band and also not compromise with his other 'commitments'. But that's just my guess... " |
