Rated 0 I believe that this song is inspired by the book "Siddhartha" by Hermann Hesse. It is about a boy's journey to Enlightenment in India at the same time as the Buddha. A powerful theme is the concept of the circle in time portrayed through the relationship of the father and son, exemplified with his experience with his father and again with the experience with his son. The waterfall refers to the symbolizm in the book in the form of a river being the essence of life. At the end, Siddhartha was only able to reach enlightenment through this realization: that no matter how much life splits from the source, everything tends to gravitate back towards it. |
