I can give a line by line analysis of this song :D Basically, this song is about two orphans growing up in the orphanage and one makes it big and gets famous. Don't be angry if you don't agree, I know this probably isn't right but it makes sense to me and that's what the song means to me And even though the moment passed me by I still can't turn away *Even though the opportunity left, he still dreams for the opporunity of being adopted* And all the dreams you never thought you'd lose get tossed along the way *In the orphanage, your hope and faith dies* Letters that you never meant to send lost or thrown away *self explanatory* And now we're grown up orphans that never Knew their names *self explanatory* Don't belong to no one that's a shame *They don't have a family* You could hide beside me maybe for a while *You can hide from the world, he'll look after you* And I won't tell no one your name I won't tell em' your name *He won't betray you or leave you* Scars are souvenirs you never lose , the past is never far *emotional scars or being an orphan* Did you lose yourself somewhere out there , did you get to be a star? *Trying for fame, did you forget yourself or your friends* Don't it make you sad to know that life is more than who we are *Life isn't just about you* You grew up way too fast and now there's Nothing to believe *In the orphanage, you don't get to be a kid* And reruns all become our history *You deal with the same stuff everyday* A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio And I won't tell no one your name I won't tell em' your name *Even if you get sick of the world, he won't betray you* I think about you all the time *He misses his friend* But I don't need the same *He doesn't think his friend misses him* It's lonely where you are come back down And I won't tell em your name *It's lonely at the top, but if you give it up and come back, he won't tell anyone, he'd still be loyal* |

I know some people might not agree with me, but whenever I listen to these lyrics, and especially when I watch the film clip, this song means to me about the feeling you get after your true love leaves you or breaks up with you. The lyrics saying that "IF one day you wake and find that your missing me....MAYBE you'll come back to the place where we'd meet...So I'm not moving." show me that he's desperately wishing she'd come back. He's hoping she'll be back so he's is grasping for straws and hoping for anything. IF and MAYBE show that he's just trying to have faith in something that won't happen. |
