Remembrance, can be a sentence, but it comes to you with a second chance in tow Don't lose it, don't refuse it, cos you cannot learn a thing you think you know I really like this quote. My interpretation is as follows: Remembrance can be a sentence. Sometimes we are reminded of past wrongs or hard times due to just a sentence or a single word. Like I was once reminded of a trip because someone said the word "palm" - and although I had a great trip I suddenly missed all the people I met on the trip. The next sentence states that remembrance gives us a second chance. I think most can aggree that this is a good thing, and since this sentence starts with a "but" I believe that the previous sentence is intended to have a negative value. That is, the remembrance that the song is talking about brings about negative emotions. Also, the second sentence reminds us that blocking our negative thoughts away from consciousness is sometimes a bad way of blocking out the negative emotions, that are a result of the negative thoughts. By focusing on the negative thoughts and emotions we can actually learn something about ourselves and may have the opportunity to do something about the things that continuously stress us in our lives. And the last two sentences basically just say what I already said in the above. You shouldn't block/refuse the thoughts (remembrance) and you can learn something, you might never knew, you didn't know by not blocking your thoughts. |
