the art of a good song is it can mean anything to anyone..to me this is about getting hurt by someone that doesnt love you but wants to still be close..but you cant. "You couldn't possibly know how much you meant to me.You couldn't honestly look inside my tarot (future)You couldn't possibly find it in your heart to forgive me (for not being able to stay close)You are the savage sun (hurtful) and scarecrow (opposite character of the tin man..no brains)
The time goes by and you've got a lot to learn..tells me the person the song is about is innocent / immature in life. "the hearts not inside..i gotta find the one thats just right" means you dont love me (heart = love) i have to find someone that will (tin man is looking for a heart or LOVE)
You offer all amends in hopes of saving me (the person wants to stay close thinking life if better w' them)
You never imagined I could be strong without you (exactly what it says..)
You offer me a branch of peace that bleeds through (these people fight a lot)
The thorns that welcomed me — now speak truth (the branch of peace hurts too much to take)
