Pure and simple, this is about death and it's inevitability and the all pervasive dread that it inspires. People try to avoid death, try to act like it's never touched their lives, try to beat it back but it always wins in the end. When a person's number is up, it's up.
@thirstymuse wow so well said. I love how literal Tom comes across, despite all the profound underlying meanings hidden within. Thanks for giving me a new appreciation for this song!
