The lyrics are "I'm falling through a ribbon lost", not "last". Love this song, fantastic meaning. |

--This is my interpretation of the song and LYRICS CORRECTION in *stars*:-- "On the cusp of vessel eighteen, A look of terror in our eyes, The moonlight licked the face of danger" --They are in an Apollo mission to the moon, stuck in a ship, and something is going wrong-- "Innocence made us like soldiers, Untouchable and golden, A quilt of darkness dotted with our teardrops..." --They are not soldiers due to the words "innocence made us like soldiers"-- "I know you're sad I'm leaving, So this may hurt a little, But girl, look from your window late tonight..." --The girl is heartbroken that he has to go on the mission-- "You think my heart is frozen, While yours is slowly grieving, You see the boy you love start burning in the sky." --She thinks he doesn't care and doesn't feel emotion while she is extremely sad he has to go, she will look up from her window and see a flash in the sky which is his ship and crew on fire dying in the sky-- "You are a dozen to the project, With a galaxy of questions, And all we heard was lies about the truth." --The people who employed them for the mission told them it was safe-- "No choice but be obedient, Like prisoners of war, Caught on the wrong side of morality and youth." --He was forced to go on the mission to the moon for money or some other reason and "caught on the wrong side of morality"-- "We thought about our loved ones, Tallying fifty on our foreheads, With the pen your mother gave me in the spring." --Him and his crew knew that they were about to die and though about loved ones, tallied numbers with his pen that reminded him of his girlfriend and they waited for the death they could not escape-- "The sun beat at the windows, Within an hour James had *cracked*. *Left the ship and died*, still clinging to the *wings*." --The sun through the windows of the vessel was very bright and the stress got to their shipmate, James, and he left the ship and died (no air) still floating and clinging to the wings-- "Start burning in the sky... Start burning in the sky... Start burning in the sky... Start burning in the sky... " --In a way, my interpretation sounds like the TV show, "Defying Gravity". I know this is probably not about that type of situation but I interpreted it that way. |
