    Lyrics:
    Well I met an old man dying on a train
    No more destination no more pain
    Well he said one thing, before I graduate
    Never let your fear decide your fate
    I say you kill your heroes and fly fly baby don't cry
    No need to worry cause everybody will die
    Everyday we just go go baby don't go
    Don't you worry we love you more than you know
    Well the sun one day will leave us all behind
    Unexplainable sightings in the sky
    Well I hate to be the one to ruin the night
    Right before your, right before you eyes
    I say you kill your heroes and fly fly baby don't cry
    No need to worry cause everybody will die
    Everyday we just go go baby don't go
    Don't you worry we love you more than you know
    Well I met an old man dying on a train
    No more destination no more pain
    Well he said one thing, before I graduate
    Never let your fear decide your fate
    I say you kill your heroes and fly fly baby don't cry
    No need to worry cause everybody will die
    Everyday we just go go baby don't go
    Don't you worry we love you more than you know

    He was straight to the point. Live your life, soon it wouldn't matter, because you will die. So, stop looking up to other people and learn to be yourself. Great song.

      I feel like I need to balance out my shoulder tats. And I want a left sided one, relative to the other ones. I thought maybe I'd put a quote up there. Maybe a lyric. I like this one.
      This song will always remind me of my youngen. Shes always been a feisty one. Even in her feistyness she's been cute. But ahhh her formative yrs. But also 😍 her formative yrs. I love listening to my 14 yr Olds mind & hearing her insight & her inquisitive self. I could do w/ out the mood swings, & the know it all ish on small things. But her naturally being wonderous & wanting to be wondrous is all 😍, yeah, I made that. And yes, I take some cred for that. Bc I'm her fav.

    Watching him perform this song is hilarious. Saw him live and half way through the song he almost tripped into the mic. Afterwards he saw how security was detaining people who were crowd surfing and said "You wanna take people from my show?" and divebombed into the crowd(though it was more like flailing). His face was right in front of mine and he touched my hand. I don't know if he was sober but it was a great show nonetheless.

  • @TheWriter960
    @TheWriter960 9 лет назад +1097

    I think this song is a song about realization and disillusionment. There is just so much self-disappointment in this world. People who have hero's that they'll never be, kids who set sights on becoming something simply because there's a person out there that they want to be like, and if they fail at becoming that person, they feel like they, themselves are a failure, when there are other things that they would be so much better at. And in reality, not everyone needs to be big. I believe we tell our descendants the biggest and most damaging lie when we say "This world was built on the shoulders of giants." No, no it wasn't, this world has, is, and forever will be built on the backs of men and women. Do you think Isaac Newton would have been a great Physicist and Mathematician if he hadn't had a house? Do you think Albert Einstein would have been able to develop his Theory of Relativity if there hadn't been a school teacher to teach him the basics of Math when he was a child. Do you think Jack Andraka, the boy who developed a new and cheaper, and more accurate way of detecting cancer would have been able to do so, if farmers weren't around to provide food? Or if Seamstress's weren't around to make clothing? No, none of today's world would be here if it weren't for the working class. There are plenty of kids who have normal ambitions, but are told to bolster them, because if you aren't shooting for the top, it isn't worth it. But if everyone shoots for the stars, who's going to be left on earth?
    We should celebrate the Isaac Newtons, and the Albert Einsteins, and the Jack Andraka's of the world, but, in the same breath, we shouldn't forget about the unnamed brick-layers, construction worker, farmers and seamstress's of the world either, for they are the reason that the Newtons, and the Einsteins, and the Andraka's can do what they do.

      ***** good to see someone knowing how to be precise with his words. This song is about questioning your authorities. How does the video fit in though? The kids' actions are clearly shown in a good light. In some way this makes sense, because their are questioning their parents rules. On the other hand they are just copying what the awols are doing, which leads to a complete obliteration of the furniture. Are they doing the right thing or not?

    • @TheWriter960
      @TheWriter960 9 лет назад +18

      ***** Personally, I think that pertains more "The Status Quo" more than a dilemma of "Right and Wrong."
      The songs basest message is "The Status Quo should change." And I think the kids are the symbolism that not all changes can or will be good, but the fact that the Status Quo did changes is good in and of itself.
      Because the video could have just as easily been about the kids hearing this, and then throwing out their toys, instead of destroying them, donning business wear, and going to look for actual work, rather than the smarmy chores parent's tell their kids to go beg for money from other people by promising to do said chores.

    For those of you who don't know the meaning of this song is ultimately, our decisions are of no consequence, because the universe is greater than us and moves along entirely unaffected by the choices we make, and that there is much we will never know no matter how hard we search for answers. Achieve your full potential, because no matter who you are, you truly have nothing to lose.

    At 1:55 he says "well the sun will one day leave us all behind....explainable sightings in the sky" and as he says it there is eerie music playing in the background which is in contrast to the happy "Mr. Rogers" friendly music. Just thought it was weird, this part of the song strikes a chord with me and I don't know why. Also in the music video of the song Sail he is portrayed as a conspiracy theorist that is being chased and captured by what is hinted as aliens (and Illuminati) what does he know that we don't?
