| Grateful Dead – Franklin's Tower Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
In general, I think if you over analyze lyrics you are missing what Grateful Dead was about. They created a feeling with their songs, not precise meanings. Backup a little and feel the song. It's about a wallflower becoming a wildflower. It's about birth, life, freedom. It's about people emigrating to America to laugh their past away or just make it for one more day. Ben Franklin's Liberty Bell up in that tower is like a beacon for those looking for freedom. It can ring, turn night to day It can ring like fire when you loose your way. Roll away, the dew. Get up, keep going, seek freedom, survive. |
