Kind of brutal, but I like to think the song is about suicide. Obscurely; poetically. “A kiss of the wind” is an abstract gun shot to the head that starts the song, then "life” moves on. Behind the windows of his eyes, is the winter of our discontent, and if you understand the Shakespearean source, deep depression 'glorified' by being over, done. The 'reason' for it can only be found in his eyes/mind, but life moves on. Both the world moving on AND his life moving on to its final resolution. The solo being an abstract glorious unique interpretation of one's life, beginning to end. Aurally, one of the best metal songs ever made. I'm taking this 'flier' here on the lyrics.
