I had never heard of the movie this song is supposed to be about when I first heard (and fell in love with) this song. I interpreted this song much differently than the above explanation, and while it obviously fits the song, I do think there is some parallel to it. It's obviously a love song, but I saw it as a love song from God to us.
Well you know I hardly speak.
When I do it's just for you.
I haven't said a word in weeks
'Cause they've been keeping me from you
God generally speaks through circumstance rather than actual words. Yet, if you listen there is that still small voice in the background. Still God is usually quiet when we are ignoring him. So, all of those things that separate us from God could be the "they".
There's a way where there's a will.
You know I got no need for stairs.
Step out on the window sill,
Fall with me into the air
I took this to mean that everything becomes perfected by God's eternal plan for us, and that his will can make a way for any possibility. The rest it seemed to be was about faith, about taking a leap and trusting him to catch us when we fall.
So, here we go.
Hold on tight and don't let go.
I won't ever let you fall.
I love the night.
Flying o'er these city lights.
But I love you most of all.
Man I love this chorus, so incredible. In the context of this being a love song from God to us, this is extremely touching. Heck in any context its incredible.
Well there's something you should know.
Girl you should have died that day.
You fell reaching for the rose
Baby I was there to save you.
This, to me, was about what Christ did for us on the cross. I see this as the act of ultimate love for us by saving us from ourselves. Truly, the greatest thing that has ever happened on this earth.
It would be pretentious of me to say that this is really what the song is about. Honestly only Dustin and God know the truth. But to me this will always be more of a love song from God to Milly, then from Erik.
I really don't quite know why someone would rate this -1.
Personally Fightoffyourdemons, I love your interpretation. The more I listen to it, the more it seems that is the actual meaning, and Thrice just used the movie as a background basis.

Most of us when trying to lead our own path, aren't listening to a word that the Lord says to us. I've been down that road, and it's not fun, nor is it the right choice. I'm back on track now, and Thrice has been a great hand in helping me when i'm down.
