I would have to say it's about Childhood. Childhood comforted them because they had no responsibilities. They trusted that it would be there forever while they grew up. I think childhood is the house and the fox. The fire is growing up. Childhood's also "where it all begins". "Can you chase the fire away" Is can you go back to childhood. When you were a kid, you would wait for your shoes to wear out before buying a new pair. Climbing to the top might be readiness for adulthood but she ran down because she was scared of the future. I think that the alternative version with the tallest man refers to their father maybe because when you were a kid, you would think of your dad as a giant. I have no explanation for the kid in the bag on his back, maybe like a baby he's taking care of. |
