''' | === Song Interpretations === | ||
Some will look at this two-dimensionally and see it as talking about a baby in the womb about to be born. Others interpret this as a metaphor for trying to take the hand of a misguided and lost friend; one who's in a place they've been before, and show them what they're missing in life and how to overcome the darkness they've surrounded themselves with. | |||
