Cover art for Utopia lyrics by Within Temptation

I totally agree with Madvil and AngelsSorrow, and I can add that.. the man on the video is like "God" or an "Angel", who comes to earth and sees all the bad things we have created, and the tears fall from his eyes; but he is trying to "tell" us that we should do something now, otherways the world would become a worst place. Other idea that came through my mind was that the persons that watch the crimes almost never do something (like the man on the video) because they are afraid, and at last it shows that doing something good, although is very little, it is still helpful; but if everyone does it, our world would turn to be Within Temptation's UTOPIA <3 ;)

This song is great, although it is slow; but with this makes you think about it :) i loved it!

My Interpretation

This is what I thought: Because he does not have the power to stop people from committing crimes. If we assume he's some kind of God, God did create life, but all he could do afterwards was merely watching the human and their society. If he's an angel, angel can't punish human either. He can just save them at the very least (like he did with the little boy)

So he's trying to tell the mankind to reflect upon their own actions. He can save the innocent souls but can only drop tears for the tainted ones.

Though his message...
