| Ben Folds – The Ascent Of Stan Lyrics
| 23 years ago
|
I think this song is about not conforming and doing what you want, but then you eventually end up like everyone else. "In fact, you have become all of the things you’ve always run away from"-You used to hate the followers, but now you are one. "Once you wanted revolution,
Now you’re the institution" This is the line that defines the song.

I think that part is just describing how he's trying to get his friends to take chances and have their own philosophies, but they are too used to conforming with the crowd...hence the line " You just never been out in the woods alone" Does that make sense? just my opinion |

I've also heard that Ben wrote this on a bet that he couldn't write a song with a one-syllable chorus. |
