I don't know why but I think this is about a boy who wishes he had never been born but at the same time wishes that he could just return to being a kid because he never really had a childhood. I can sort of relate to this. plus the line about looking backwards, choosing to live as statues makes me think that you're dwelling so much on what could have been that you're not getting anywhere, not moving forward [running in place]<- not intentionally added, by the way.

sad and powerful song; definitely one of my favorites.
