I can't get this song out of my head!

There is this song I just cannot get out of my head! Fortunately I really like it. It is the new Matchbox 20 song, How far we've come. If you have not heard it yet, or watched the video then click this link www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlqfpPf_EO0 and it should take you to youtube to watch the video. I looked up the words to the song and it was interesting. I found this webpage where it posted the words and then there were posts debating about what the song meant. I think the beauty of most music, cinema and art is that is holds a different meaning to people depending on what is going on in their life right now and where there focus is at. When I hear this song, I hear someone that is self reflecting on their life, someone that is confused and searching for meaning. Maybe a spiritual rebirth. I read a lot of posts stating that it was about global warming or literaly about the end of times. I think it is more about the end of his world as he knew it and the start of a new life full of motivation and determination. At least that's what I would like to think. Anyway, this song has been on my mind now for about a week. I just keep listening to it over and over in my car. Here are the lyrics:

Waking up at the start of the end of the world

But it's feeling just like every other morning before

Now I wonder what my life is gonna mean if it's gone

The cars are moving like a half a mile an hour if that

Started staring at the passengers waiving goodbye

Can you tell me what was really special about me all this time

(chorus)

But I believe the world is burning to the ground

Oh Well, I guess we're gonna find out

Let's see how far we've come, Let's see how far we've come

I believe it all is coming to an end

Oh well, I guess we're gonna pretend

Let's see how far we've come, Let's see how far we've come

I think it turned 10 o'clock but I don't really know

I can't remember caring for an hour or so

Started crying and I couldn't stop myself

I started running but there's nowhere to run to

I sat down on the street, took a look at myself

Said where you going man you know the world is heading for hell

Say your goodbyes if you've got someone you can say goodbye to

(chorus)

It's gone gone baby its all gone

There's no one on the corner and there's no one at home

It was cool cool it was just all cool

Now it's over for me and it's over for you

It's gone gone baby its all gone

There's no one on the corner and there's no one at home

It was cool cool it was just all cool

Now it's over for me and it's over for you

(chorus)
