wow. first comment; surprising.
okay, i think this song is about how the anchors are pulling him down so to speak- like, hes being dragged down by bad mistakes and wrong turns in his life; thus the first verse of the song:
"i have so many anchors
so many, so many
(so many anchors)
far too many to be sailing on these seas
(they're pulling me under
and i just want to be freed
but i'm just drowning and clasping)
to the tinder and twine
not the firm planks and rope
that i know to be mine
that i know to be mine"
