ive been stuck on the meanin of this song for ages, then after lookin at the posts and reading the lyrics from the last verse backwards to the first verse i kinda get the feelin that the terminal illness is a good explanation of the meaning. "all wired up in a dawnin ray" i think is a metaphor for bein wired up at a hospital. i think the 3rd verse hints the twilight of someones life, ie. a person is dying. 2nd verse- the ride to the hospital in the ambulance with the movin beneath the trees and reflection in the water lines. 1st verse- a person findin another person dying and panickin, "rain like silver in my ears" i think shows panic metaphorically ringin in ur ears. oh well, i cud be way off!!
