wow o0ver 2 years an no one commented on this...wow...this is my favorite song on Freedom but the lyrics are wrong...well theyre all right except the first verse up above doesnt exist in the song (unless its in the live version...i never heard this song live so i wouldnt know) anyways...ill give you a verse by verse break down
1st verse (not counting the fist verse up above): this guy likes to fly planes and he dies in a plane crash. in the lines "we all have to fly someday" flying is basically a metaphor for death. flyin to heaven. and it is sayng that no matter what we all have to die someday.
2nd verse: this stanza basically says how everyone is going to heaven because we really all have to sin someday...i mean how many people never cursed ever in their entire lives? none. well unless they were babies or a small child. but thats besides the point...everyone has sined once in their life...it doesnt mean theyre going to hell.
3rd verse: this is a tough one...it talks about the oil pips in alaska and how there many men working in the pipes lost their lives. i dont really know much about the alaskin pipelines but basically the message is that the lost and forgotten will be remembered someday.
4th verse: this one talks about guy in his death bed asking his wife to hold him. (this part reminds me of when my dad died. and my mom and all are familly were around him for his final miniutes and my mom was holding him) the lines "we wont have to wait someday" means that someday in the future they dont have to wait to be together again because when she dies they will be together again in heaven.
