an old love of his from far away shows up. he still has feelings for her, and i guess might want to 'hook up'. he knows if she gets involved with his life, then he won't be able to live it the way he wants to. "How are things on the West Coast? I hear you movin' real fine You wear those shoes like a dove Now strut those shoes We'll go roaming in the night Well how are things on the West Coast?" he meets her, tells her she looks nice, asks if she wants to chill. "You keep it movin' to your soul's delight Now I've tried the brakes I've tried but you know it's a lonely ride How are things on the West Coast? Oh and move heaven behind those eyes..." she just does what she wants to do and could ruin his life (which seems to be planned out), and he's given up on her before and knows it's lonely, and now he's thinking about putting her before his dreams for the future. "Today my heart swings Yeah, today my heart swings But I don't want to take your heart And I don't want a piece of history No I don't want to read your thoughts anymore My God..." his heart's swinging back in forth bewteen what he wants for himself in the future and what he wants at the moment (her). he doesn't want her to fall in love with him. he doesn't want a repeat of last time. he doesn't want to be close to her anymore. "Cause I've got a chance for a sweet saint life I said I've got a dance and you'll do just fine Well I've got a plan, look forward in my eyes" he's got a chance to make his life exactly how he wants it, but he has a moment to be with her, cause what he wants is in the future. basically, exactly what electriceel01 said. |

" Well, the universe is shaped exactly like the earth if you go straight long enough you'll end up where you were. " what happens when you walk straight for a really, realy long time? the earth is a sphere so you'll be back at the exact same spot. he's just saying the universe is a sphere. |

has anyone said that earth is the 3rd planet from the sun? the fact that we (or a majority of people) think we're being watched by a greater being just proves that this line- " The 3rd planet is sure that they're being watched by an eye in the sky that can't be stopped. " is about 'the greater being' watching earth. " When you get to the promise land your gonna shake that eyes hand. " that's about heaven and meeting 'the greater being'. pretty obvious. the whole idea with the miscarriage and dead baby is just lame. it doesn't make any sense. i do agree it has something to do with death though. and the whole scientific view vs religous view seems like the best interpretation so far. hell, it could be about aliens watching earth and planning to take over. or transformers XD |
