Noodle: Every planet we reach is dead. An image of...catching a glimpse of your soul, the battlefield, from above. 'I lost my land.' This is...how d'you put it...An 'unloaded question'. A proposal to question ourselves and our decisions.
Russel: There's a Charles Bukowski quote that's goes something like...'If you're losing your soul and you know it, then you've still got a soul left to lose.' You can kinda hear this sentiment in the line, 'I lost my way, what am I going to do?'
Noodle: Sometimes the answers are not available. And sometimes describing the problem is a part of the solution.
Murdoc: And sometimes, if you ignore a problem, it'll go away...eventually.
It's really just about losing and finding your soul through the decisions and actions you make. The beauty of good song writing though is when you can interpret the song in many ways, which you've all done. It'd odd though how songs are always turned into a love song. That's what most seek for in life.
