This is one awesome song, a best of theirs and a favourite of mine. I've heard it might be a cover, an old Eric Clapton song or something like that....regardless, it's the kind of song that winds me down alittle and makes life seem slightly stabler and better off. It does sound like it could be aboot the environment, but I don't think that's what the song is aboot. I think the song is aboot, like others have said, life being a constant cycle, aboot humanity trying to help each other "over and over again/ I find the soul that burns....", and Dave Grohl stating a possibility of some sort of god or higher power being out there, and searching for it;
"To keep these broken wings floating
Carry on into the sun, into the sun
On into the sun
On into the sun
Looking down at you, sleeping
From above, I love...".
