The last stanza is really something to marvel at. So much is happening there. I found some really neat imagery in there, all you have to do is dig a little. "Then there were three men up front" This represents the three persons of the trinity. "All I saw were backs of heads" God shows himself, but not always in the most obvious ways. This line is setting up what is about to happen. "And then one turned around to say" Which person of the trinity showed their face? Oh yeah. Its Jesus. Jesus is the nly one to ever come to earth in the human flesh and TELL us the way to heaven. This line is also setting up this next part. We are going to break up this chunk, but stay with me here. -1-"We're driving toward the morning sun" -2-"Where all your blood is washed away" -3-"And all you did will be undone" 1. Jesus tells us that we are on our way to heaven. He tells us how to get to heaven. 2.This is pretty chilling to me, but the blood of Jesus is talked about a lot in the New Testament. Especially at the crucifixion. It is said that Jesus took away our sins on the cross with his blood. 3.Back to him taking away our sins on the cross. Twenty One Pilots uses the metaphor of a car in several of their songs. In most of the songs, a car drive is a metaphor for someones life, i think this song is no different. It sounds like to me that This last part is about him and God. |
