As far as meaning goes, This song is definitely out there.

I suppose it's reviewing one's life as a story; "When does it get good, at the end of life or at the start of 'ever-after' - Love? "god's twisted game of hide and seek" really confuses me however. teaching that "A picture is worth a thousand words" is nothing more than hide and seek, that we have to find the words?

"5-4-3-2-1.
Alphabetical lies in numerical time". That's a clear reference to music, but with all the talk about "coming out", I'm taking that as in just confessing anything and everything, so maybe it's music rather than books that get to true feelings, but then why would they lie, or is it as of laying down?

"It's now or never Make it now" ...Take things at face, or intuitive value? (Ironic that I'm not)

"And what if this is all there is we'll have to reevaluate" ...Pretty much am reevaluating this song.

"Stop!"

"Please will you take my hand I thought of everything Hear what we have to save?" Asking us to help them with what?

"Clean slates for living lies We're leaving the past behind" Leaving the assumption that a picture being worth a thousand words was given to us as a child and we never really understood that; we just nodded our heads and listened, but we're no longer doing that - We're thinking for ourselves. We tried to find the meaning of these preschool phrases and sayings, but it's been hiding from us forever. Leave it behind?
