so i know it's been such a long time, but i was wondering why you don't believe in God? i wonder what hurt brought you to a place where you once believed and then that faith was taken from you. |

i'm liking what miss kokeshi wrote. putting the title into the interpretation, very nice!
honestly i thought it was "got walls of steel", like an impenetrable wall so that no one would get in, which sorta fits with the rest as someone who scrimps and saves because the world hasn't been very kind to his/her bank account. and like all black sheep (myself included), i feel we tend to make ourselves out to be the victim more than we ought, bending the truth and changing our pasts to make ourselves seem more tragic. |

so first i would say that he is speaking for a collective group of people since he uses the plurals "we", "us" and "our" (at least most of the time). there's definitely an "us vs. them" element with they being the ones burning roads, lying and pronouncing people dead. with that in mind, i would go against parents or teachers since, though they do lie often, they usually try to steer us toward the right direction, toward the "light". now i think this song rocks, but me being not that huge a fan of dashboard and also being a Christian, i can't come up with any other explanation than it's about those suffering in the church. it becomes a very depressing song when there are people trying to do the right thing, trying to fit in, trying to "live" and only going unnoticed with the "christians" doing what they can to keep the collective group down. Pacific Sun would be God, and i finally end with saying it's so sad to see what ought to be a safe haven being more vicious than the world outside. |

I agree that at least the part of color has nothing to do with Kurt or Courtney. Also, though sometimes the video takes away from the actual meaning of songs, I'd like to think that with it and the whole "sell out" theory go hand in hand, the video being so plain.
Did anyone else think that he was singing, "Sell your song, sign an autograph" the first time around? |
