I remember being in Grade 10 and having to talk about a song to which I relate. I chose this one and played it in the background while I explained the song and my relation to it. And I remember getting these blank stares. Looking back on it now, the whole situation fit this song perfectly. Haha.
Being a performer, I instantly connected with this song on a figurative and literal level. "I was meant for the stage"...be it the stage of life or a stage in an actual theatre, I couldn't agree more.
But really this song is about being the one ON the stage, your LIFE being ON the stage and all the audience "will resume their callow ways" but being meant for the stage is hard and trecherous road; most who try to follow don't come back or find their destination.
Thanks for your comment and clarification . This song anyway is only a pretext to show my concert tickets of bands and singers that have been on stage...Unluckyly I have never seen them on stage.....
