i think this song is about families (obviously) that are dysfunctional but that deep inside they really love each other:
stop the season stop the sting
a plastic mic a broken string
infected wound from a rusty ring
-their fights come and go as if they were seasons, and many times somebody gets really hurt either emotionally or physically
soon, you'll be there too
-they say to each other, "this will happen again, dont worry"
kissing families can't recall
a program to derail us all
forgotten prison it's been safe 'til now
-they cant recall the times they loved each other, they wish they had sort of a program to follow step by step to make things better, they fell like they imprisoned, and they are no longer safe with their family
t's no wonder that we did it this way
keep looking forward on paths sideways
it's everything that is connected and beautiful
and now i know just where i stand
move on
roll along
not today
it's everything that is connected and beautiful
and now i know just where i stand
-its no surprise that this disaster happened, because they looked for happiness where they shouldn't (drugs alcohol) but they know that they are a family and that they are all connected in beautiful ways to each other, and now the son (whom i think its the one narrating the story) knows his part in the family and what he has to do. they move on, to a better time
thank god you're heart is too close
-they are thankful that they are together
this can be the bitter end
i know it wont
-it explains itself
