Angels & Airwaves - The Adventure (Acoustic) (Lyric Video) - "A song's meaning is reserved to the individual"

If other people share a similar interpretation of a song as you, it can obviously be interpreted that way. Even if you alone in your interpretation, if you had wrote the words you would still tell people that was the meaning, so it means what you think it does regardless!

"A song's meaning is reserved to the individual"

This has pretty much been accepted by in large by the literature community for decades now. What the artist says their piece is about doesn't matter because your perception of the piece, and the author's, is shaped by literally everything in your life and no two lives are going to be the same. That's because a work of art is never standalone, it exists in the context of all culture. What you're doing by saying "the artist says x, so the song means x" is limiting the interpretation of the song and forcing your perception of the piece on others. As long as you can support you interpretation of a piece of art, with songs this is much harder, then your interpretation is valid.

General CommentAlright this is what I get from it. Let me know what ya think.

The song is like a metaphor and analogy for death and blink breaking up.

I want to have the same last dream again
The one where I wake up and im alive

(Tom realizes he pretty much ended his career ((dieing)) and wants it back so hes making his new band AvA, the dream of him being a musician again.)

Just as the four walls closed me within
My eyes are opened up with pure sunlight

(The analogy of death here, four walls closing him within is a casket, right as he thinks his lifes over and hes dieing he gets the idea of AvA, his eyes opening with pure sunlight of a new life, also in the analogy of being heaven.)

Im the first to know, my dearest friends
Even if your hope has burned with time

(he sees the sunlight he knows there is a heaven, hes telling all his freinds that didn't believe in a life after death thata there is still hope, hes the first to know because hes dead, but its all a metaphor for blink breaking up, the new hope of heaven is AvA)

Anything thats dead shall be regrown
And your viscious pain, your warning sign
You will be fine

(His guarantee of an after life, all thats dead will be regrown in heaven, all the pain and warnings that people put up to not believe are out of line, everyone will be fine. Now all that again metaphorically speaking of blink breaking up and Tom coming back as AvA. Every Reference of an after life in this song is AvA and every Reference of death is blink breaking up.)

Hey yo, here i am, and here we go, lifes waiting to begin

(Pretty obvious, hes back and ready to fuck shit up Lets Party!)

Any type of love it will be shown
Like every single tree reach for the sky

(just kool sounding lines again reassuring that a new band/ wave of after life is coming and will be amazing.)

If youre gonna fall, ill let you know
That i will pick you up like you for I

(This is kool it says like Tom's looking out for the fans, "pick him up" like have faith and stay loyal, hill pick us up like we did him by giving us the best music ever which he promised earlier in this song.)

I felt this thing i cant replace
That everyone was working for this goal
Where all the children left without a trace

(He felt a new life style/band he wanted to live out, he ended blink and can't replace what everyone worked to build in that band, all the kids that love it were left thinking it was all over(( until the next line of the soooonng))

Only to come back as pure as gold
To recite this song

(all the kids that thought he ended everything and ruined it all come back even better because they hear this badass music and new amazing life style, obviously reciting this song, following AvA.)

The rest is self explanatory just Tom inviting everyone onto the next adventure.....

General Commenti personally think this song is about reincarnation. Four walls that close him are his vision fading and his eyes opening with pure sunlight is the light that some people see when they die. i think he is saying to never give up on good things happening even though there is so much death. I think he is also expressing what he hopes his next life to be like. He says that anything thats touched will be regrown and youre vicious pain is your warning sign that you will be fine. This has to be one of the most positive uplifting songs i have ever heard. "We are all the children left without a trace only to come back as pure as gold to recite this song here i am here we go life is waiting to begin.

I think that this song is about life after death.

"The one where I wake up and im alive"
"Only to come back as pure as gold"

"Anything thats dead shall be regrown
And your viscious pain, your warning sign
You will be fine"

all signs of what will happen after death,, we will be new again.
