Lyric discussion by Clairre 

I can't believe no one has ever analyzed this great tune. Course, it's probably pretty self-explanatory... when you let the fear that we've been taught in the last 6 years to take over, you lose any objectivity and set atrocities loose into the world.

Only when we refuse to be frightened (in this case, by our government, who wants to to stay afraid and distracted) can we hope to see our way through this mess we've made of the world.

"It's not the spark that caused the fire..." 9.11.2001 didn't set off the disaster we perpetrated on the rest of the world. "It was the air you breathed that fanned the flame..." The constant hum in every bit of media and coming out of the White House of "WMDs" convinced everyone that war was the only way.

"Was John the only dreamer?" John Kennedy. And no. Bobby was one, too.
