I think the song is about a guy making the decision to get sober and the struggles he takes trying to heal the wounds of his addiction. The references to him as a child not able to stand or do much of anything is what people in rehab go through with withdrawls and such. Or this could be the exact opposite, its a man saying he wants to keep going but its too late and he fucked up so now he has to venture into the "unknown". I prefer the first idea, a bit more uplifting.
@Prog_Rocker I completely agree and the not knowing how to walk is much more than just rehab it's the everyday life of not going back to the drug when "life" happens everyday. And I like your twist on it I thought that of maybe it's too late and he's just accepting the gravity of how far he has taken it and that even tho he says I choose to live it is a subtle fade out of maybe that choice is now gone. Even tho I think it's a little far stretched I like the idea of the twist....
