....with decades ( hate to think of that) of listening to The Church's music, I find it more comforting and relevant in taking a line or two and finding meaning in the smaller parse rather than the inscrutable whole. So many times these one or two lines come to me in everyday settings....many a time I've come walking home in the wee hours of late night/early morn "rusted stream of dawn" , with deserted roads "where cars once crawled these streets"........et al, etc. Even when I can't grasp what the lines mean, invariably they are at the very least poetic; I've enjoyed and appreciated the music through the years
