@[caitsith01:2153]: I mostly agree. I think you have the metaphor correct. However, I don't believe that the song is "saying" that; I prefer to think that Frank/the band are suggesting that these could be thoughts in the minds of the businessmen as they commit these acts. I believe they're trying to imagine how a person could internally rationalize such a murder-suicide. They find the answer to be: the freedom. I imagine that, for the great songwriters, writing a song is analogous to an actor becoming the character. |
