I think this song relates to Matthew 14, in which Peter walks on water in the storm at sea to Jesus ("and I will walk on water"), but when he takes his eyes off Jesus, he starts to sink, but Jesus takes his hand ("and you will catch me if I fall") "If I could just see you, everything will be alright" seems to me to be a representation of this--if he keeps his eyes on God he can stay above the "oceans shapeless form" but at the same time it feels realistic, with doubt: "I know you didn't bring me out here to drown, so why am I 10 feet under and upside down?" I formed this image in my mind from the first time I heard it and it fills me with hope every time I hear it. |

It's from Beethoven's Pathetique Sonata for Piano (Sonata No. 8), the second movement. I really love how he incorporated classical into pop. |
