my favorite line is, "she comes back to tell me she is gone, as if i didn't know that, as if i didn't know my own bed, as if i never noticed, how she brushed her hair from her forehead." paul nails how if feels when you break up with someone. First and foremost, he is mad and makes fun of her, as most people make fun of their ex, But then the next line he softens his voice and basically says he still loves her. He nails the feeling of loving her and hating her at the same time. |

I think this a song about a man, who's son came back to tell him that he no longer belives in god. The dad being old, tries to convice his son that Christianity may not be perfect, but it is close (it is in the ballpark). Bob Dylan wrote, "how many times can a man look up, before he sees the sky". some people interpret that is an athiest statement. Paul answered with "some people say the sky is just sky, but i say, why deny the obvious? the cross is in the ballpark". |
