| I like what a lot of you are saying about this song (Especailly was Zeplinn said) and I agree with the majority of you. I think this song is meant to make you think. And I think this song is meant to connect to every person on this Earth. I think we all feel like the things he mentions in the songs. Sometimes we feel like ice, sometimes like dirt, sometimes like a rat, sometimes we give advice that comes too short... get it? As for the "You'll never die and you'll never grow old" thing... I'm not sure. The only way my little brain can make sense of it would be that death is stereotypically related to growing old. If you don't grow old, you won't die. But that's probably not what the wonderful Brock was intending. | |
