Well, I am extremely pleased with what they created as you can all hear and enjoy in Blue Sky Noise...I love every second of it. This son though, I read about in AP Magazine is about Anthony Green's wife miscarriage (If I'm not mistaken)..."What was stolen from us now is forever lost...What was taken from me I will never regain" This living thing that was his...is gone and he can never really regain what was close to him and Meredith..."i need[ed] somebody close to be close to forever" A child will always be close to the faher/mother and I think that this is what that means....his child was gonna be someone he would be close to for a "definite" forever and it was gone.

This meaning makes the most sense, I just don't understand what the ransom has to do with this.
