    This song has grown on me and it was great live at both BK shows. I wish it was about climate change because that's an issue that is very dear to my heart. But Wall Street angst is good too!Great lyrics.
    "The Wild is chasing after me. Hot on my trail won't leave me alone. All I can see is your blood right in front of me, and I can't kill The Wild." Me

    I agree about the cleverness. I've understood it as being about the financial crisis of 2008.

    I think it's ObamaLeaguer but they won't admit it. Keep on keepin on. Talk while nothing's changed.

    I agree.

    Nope, it's "floors".
    It's a disease and they're all green, it emanates from their being...

    As cool as this thread is, why did you post on the Porch. Move lyrical discussion to where it clearly belongs: and that's not the Porch; it's "Words and music....Communication." You'll get replied to in there as well.

    C'mon guys 'n girls.

    I’m not sure if this song is speaking of global warming, or how the more we know as humans, the more damage we do to ourselves in the long run. I guess you could take Infallible a lot of different ways, to me, it says that by ignoring problems, nothing changes.

    It’s a great song no matter how you look at it.

  • I love ambiguous lyrics. This is one of those songs that no matter what it was actually inspired by, I have been able to make it personally meaningful. This one in particular from LB. As I get older and reflect on the patterns in my life, high and low, and ponder how I often walk alone, claiming it's by choice, believing every end is a new beginning and each new wall serves a purpose... I realize it is dangerous to think I am without fault in my personal affairs. It's a great reminder to keep myself in check. Obvi I don't think it's really about me, but that's been the way I meditate when I listen to it. And I love the way his voice reaches and the music sort of sneaks along. Great tune.
