Dave Matthews Band – The Stone Lyrics 13 years ago
@ Emo
I love this piece of music, the lyrics are so full of meanings, I agree with someone who posted that they thought anyone could find a multiple series of meanings.
Everyone who listens to the lyrics can take something from them, to apply into their own life, or the life of someone close to them.
Emo, you asked in response to the line “if not I’ll go alone” you asked….. ‘why would someone go alone anyways!?’
My answer to that is, (to me anyway), it is obvious that the subject of the song suggests a journey of some kind. While we are not blessed with the details of why, may I suggest we can state that whatever the cause of the journey, it is a painfully emotional journey, that requires strength to, not only start but to complete. The lyrics suggest this journey needs to be made and while the words cry out for help and comfort, ultimately the person making that journey has come to realize that whether they are offered or ignored the journey has to be made regardless. Sometimes that’s life. I love the fact that while crying out for and, welcomes help, recognizes they need to make changes, will take responsibility for their own well-being, which equals a healthy and positive choice.
