Cover art for Saturn lyrics by Sleeping At Last

I think that some of this song is not about something being told information by someone but instead of them working it out. I think that when they say they wanted to write it down but couldn't find a pen it's talking about how they wanted to remember everything but couldn't and maybe didn't always learn from past mistakes? I think that a little bit of this song is about self reflection and life and some is also about shared knowledge.
