| i dont overly agree with travis. it definatly sounds more on a religious scale, simply based o nthe language used. however HWM are intelligent guys...so they might have meant alot of things...its definatly an uplifting song | |

| i love this song. i think it doesn't really matter if the lyrics are more directed at not following your parents or if they are directed to god. both possibilities are plausibly. the name "siddhartha" mentioned in the song seems to be a good reference. siddhartha is a book by hermann hesse. the guy called siddhartha is from india. he's searching for the meaning of life. on his journey he realises that other people may have found THEIR meaning of live, but although this meaning can be the right one for them it hasn't to be the right one for HIMSELF. i think this describes pretty much the meaning of the song. just search the net for siddhartha if your interested. sorry for my clumsy english i'm from germany 1 | |

| I think Jinx got it right. He's saying that living a good and moral life is what matters, not believing in a god. "I've found peace on my own. Sunday suit never fit quite right, maybe why I left Siddhartha style, I choose a path of open minds, am I damned for it?" | |

| Wow, what amazing lyrics. A message directed to God about how he chooses not to follow Christianity but still can lead a full and good life. | |
