Silver Lining, By David Gray? -i love this song; however I'm not sure what is he talking about?

what does it mean?


what is he talking about?





this is part of the lyrics:





Take this silver lining


Keep it in your own sweet head


Shine it when the night is burning red


Shine it in the twilight


Shine it on the cold cold ground


Shine it till these walls come


Tumbling down





We were born with our eyes wide open


So alive with wild hope


Now can you tell me why


Time after time


They drag you down


Down in the darkness deep


Fools in their madness all around


Know that the light dont sleep





Step into the silence


Take it in your own two hands


And scatter it like diamonds


All across these lands


Blaze it in the morning


Wear it like an iron skin


Only things worth living for


Innocence and magic-amen





We were born with our eyes wide open


So alive with wild hope


Now can you tell me why


Time after time


They drag you down


Down in the darkness deep


Fools in their madness all around


Know that the light dont sleep
