I actually got to have a beer with the guys in.. 2006? In Atlanta. I specifically asked Ian about this one, because I had such a connection, but couldn't quite place it. He said it's about religion. (makes sense now doesn't it!) Jim is one of his friends fathers, a bit of a holly roller. "keep being careful" - don't even suggest your wondering about the subject. Just have faith because society tells you to and live in fear. "one eye on the banquet table, the other on the door" - he said this was brought from the vision of, the last supper, or something similar. Being in the complete presence of the holy, yet feeling uncomfortable and just wanting to get out of there. The next lines express this; he's just not paying attention/uncomfortable in the situation, yet he's so close to it there's sawdust (carpenter..) in his shoes. But he's still not sure. |
