#Carry out my wayward son lyrics how to#
The devil giving the empty promise that all will be good and he will go to heaven.Įnds up with the devil reminding once more how to end all the pain and sufferingOne family takes on the elephant-sized task of ranking all 70 songs in the beloved kids’ show and lives to tell the tale. Once again telling him dying will end everything, the angel disagreeing with a no! he sets out go on, but keeps hearing the devil say. He's once again trapped in his mind and emotions, swaying back and forth between good and evil. When he talks about being a wise man, he explains he doesn't know the devil's intentions.
Referring to the devil with his motive to get the man to committ sucicide. This is the devil telling him, if he dies, it will all be over, just like that, he can be at peace with himself, and not worry about anything anymore. He sees the images of the angel and devil in his sleep, he's trapped in his mind, and is unable to choose who to listen to. He finds himself looking at his life from the outside, and meets the angel and devil, and cannot decide who to listen to. This is the devil talking about dying and ending all the pain and confusion he has. The devil telling him to committ sucicide, and the angel telling him to carry on and keep on following your so far unsuccessful life. Talking about when he outgrows this stage- "nothing equals the splendor"- of being in your 20's and in control of your life- it feels like you have the whole world ahead of you- "surely heaven waits for you" Reason:Īlthough most interested in Alfred E's meaning.i believe it's more of a swing, a man lost within himself, sort of in the classic situation of an angel and devil on his shoulder. Talking about when he outgrows this stage- "nothing equals the splendor"- of being in your 20's and in control of your life- it feels like you have the whole world ahead of you- "surely heaven waits for you" Maybe hes involved with the wrong crowd, maybe hes into drugs. This can either just be simply about the way hes feeling- confused and tossed around - or maybe "I set a course for winds of fortune"- he thought that by acting a certain way and all cool he would be happy but really he just keeps getting more miserable. Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean If he acts so wise like he knows everything- a lot of teenagers think they know everything- but they really dont and are very inexperienced with life. He tries to be all cool and confident and is really popular- no one knows how he is feeling inside.
He can see and think and seems normal but inside he is a "mad man". Though my mind could think I still was a mad man. "Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man. But he flew too high- he started thinking too much thus pushing him back into his depression and turmoil. He tries to get out of his confusing feelings to see if he could see the world normally and live happily as it seems everyone else is doing. Just to get a glimpse beyond this illussion. "Once I rose above the noise and confusion, The son is the teenager, who is wayward- either he is rebelling or just feels mixed up inside- the chorus is telling him to carry on bec at the end there will be peace- once he grows out of that stage he will be in better control of his feelings and feel at peace. I see this song about a teenager who feels so much turmoil inside, but tries hide it. This is a little different than what everyone else has been say- but i first heard this song when I was going through a very emotionally trying adolescent stage. Tossed about, I'm like a ship on the ocean Though my mind could think, I still was a mad man
Though my eyes could see, I still was a blind man Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion Once I rose above the noise and confusion
