| The first time I heard this song I thought it was about a Mother losing a son, and Binni's quote clarifies that. "My fallen son Slumber in peace Cease the pain Life's just in vain " The pain of life has ended, and now her dead son can sleep in peace "A mother's love Is a sacrifice" Pretty self-explanitory - a mother makes a sacrifice by having children, as her children are so much a part of her that her heart is broken if anything happens to them, and she sacrifices a part of her own life because her children become the center or her universe "One light for each underserved tear" Her son shouldn't have died, so her tears are undeserved. I might have get that completely wrong, but that's what I see in it. This is a really beautiful song, and a great album. | |

| This song makes me think of the Virgin Mary and Jesus.The song sounds like its about the grief a mother goes through after she loses a son.Well, I bet she went through alot of grief when Jesus was crucified. | |

| I think this is about a mother that had a somewhat bad, evil, or maybe just incomprehended son. They never got to understand each other, they both suffered much, he was scorned by the rest of the people, that made the mother totally unhappy, because no matter how proud or stubborn or different he was, still remained her son for all eternity. The son is now dead, finally in peace, and the woman is somewhat relieved that it's all over and he suffers no more. She recognizes maybe she shouldn't be crying for him for it was the best, but cannot avoid it, being a mother is a sacrifice after all; and she regrets she never reached him. Now she just wants to mourn him and think of nothing else, keeping the memories of what was really important: the love she had for him; not thinking about what is good, what is bad, or even what is beyond death. | |

| This might also tie in with Bless The Child and the theory of that song also being about someone who is terminally ill and wants to die and be able to go back in time to bless the child. "Soon to be freed from care and human pain" Black Angel's idea is also a really good one about the child being Jesus and the mother being Virgin Mary. | |
