Hey Nearthesky there is good in life and that is Jesus Christ! Christianity is not a religion is it a relationship with the One who died to wipe away sin and give eternal life. For starters I think that Matt is cleaning out his closet/life. He is removing and saying goodbye to past regrets he has stored for too long. When he says, "isn't it nice to know that the lining is silver" I think he is referring to the expression: "Every cloud has a silver lining" If you turn that in to a analogy, you could say that we are all clouds. Some with heavy hearts that need to be emptied, some with dark gray lining, others that are spread out thin across the sky, and those who's lining is silver. Anyone who interprets this differently? In "...we're golden", the 'we' I think is christians. Sounds really boastful, but we are washed clean by the blood of Jesus Christ. I'm going to listen again and make another post.

I'm a Christian, and I don't think hes referring to the fact that Christians are golden. Its an expression that we're all ok, as in we're ok with each other, reconciled.
