What is the song Beneath,Between,and Behind about!?Www@Enter-QA@Com
Answers:
I think it's a nextdoor neighbor's clear-eyed observation of America in general - after all, the band is Canadian!.
The choruses refer to looking beyond the initial images to see the underlying reality:
If you consider 'the noble bird' - The Bald Eagle - yes, it's a proud, strong, kind of image - beneath that image, things aren't, perhaps, quite so proud and strong - there's weakness, too!.
'Between the proudest words' - reading between the lines - America's Constitution and laws are intended to be proud, just, and morally right - but, again, the reality is that the Constitution and many of our laws have not always worked as well as we might hope for!.
"Behind the Beauty" - yes, America the Beautiful!. Mountains, National Parks, and so forth are truly spectacular!. But to look at the less-beautiful parts of America (e!.g!. urban decay in some cities) - again, perhaps America isn't quite as beautiful as we'd all hope for!.
I don't know if there was a particular motivation for the lyrics or not, but my interpretation of it is that the band is, simply put, not viewing America through rose-colored spectacles!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
