Thats cool if you know Frank but i think he wasnt telling you EVERYTHING about this wonderful piece of work...It says so much more...it talks about living with regrets and how they can haunt you as you get older...He tells us we need to do everything we can when we are young or we will be sorry later..it also touches on a theme that is brought up elsewhere in this album : think for yourself, you dont have to swallow what the corporate world is selling you...thats just my opinion of course
True, there is a lot more to the song, but I'm not really sure about it being about not swallowing 'what the corporate world is selling you'. It's mostly about feeling trapped. He speaks of his friend (Amy, whether or not that's her real name), who isn't where she wants to be in life, and takes comfort in the thought that there's always an opportunity to escape.

And then there's the recurring theme of getting as much out of life as you can. 'I keep having dreams of things I need to do, of waking up but not following through'...
And then there's the recurring theme of getting as much out of life as you can. 'I keep having dreams of things I need to do, of waking up but not following through' It's the fear of not living up to being what you could be, not trying hard enough - I think.

And then there's so much more. Powerful song.
