This song expresses to me how the inbred belief that we all are to strive for siler and gold on this earth is questionable. Comparing yourself to others that have more or being obsessed with obtaining more worldly possesions means little in the end or the scope of things. Sufjan is saying your gift is right here on earth but your looking right past it. All the material wealth is not what defines you. You define yourself with your actions here on earth and not in your religious belief that in the afterlife your salvation will come based on the silver & gold you mistook for happiness in this world. |
