i've always thought the last lines, and as they made sense to me was
"I bow my head in the morning light and said goodnight
I held her hand and I, I kissed her eyes
Stumbled down the stairs and hang my self on high
And I started for the town line;
the front yard
i died."
i always felt it fit the song better. i may be wrong, but it's the discrepancy that comes with what we are and what we can me. our potential and how small we really are. this person was an angel... he was a hero... except he died in the front yard. he never left nothing to become nothing.... it's a crying shame i suppose. i've always felt the song was about failure...
