I think they're is a heavy duality in this song. First, their is an issue with a girl. It has to do with him giving everything and recieving nothing in return. It eventually eats him alive leaving him numb. Climb down to test the waters, my hands feel like they are rusting away would refer to trying to get away from her but realizing that no one can match in his eyes what he has found. So he waits like a lamb to be slaughtered IE crushed by this girl who takes advantage of him. So instead of meeting new girls he will just let this one crush him. The second duality which I'm surprised no one mentioned has a similar meaning to the first but replace girl with Victory records. He gives and gives to them and they abuse and expolit what they have put their heart and soul into. I.E the "best of" CD. (I already have the best of CD but its called all 3 CD's, there isn't one CD that can sum it up.) I thkn the Video reinforces the business theory. But when he is the kid walking through the ballroom, i think its representative of how he felt. He was actually a grown man that still felt like a kid. At then end he realizes what is important IE making the music your passionate about and not what some coorporate execs want. |
