The biggest kick I ever got

So, lately (as in this week) i have had Daniel by Elton John running through my head.
Specifically
"Daniel my brother you are older than me
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal
Your eyes have died but you see more than I
Daniel you're a star in the face of the sky"

Your eyes have DIED but you SEE more than I.
Its almost like I can not comprehend that line. As much as Elton John is well known, he is not respected enough for his lyrical talent.
Your EYES have died but you SEE more than I

Stricken , I feel Stricken. I am not sure with what. I just feel like that is the most appropriate word for my current state of mind.
I think it is because I watched Running with Scissors. I always have some sort of awakening after that movie.
Wait.
I am in the process of discovering something very real about myself.
I feel like I am working through the process now. My mind is working through the equation right now.

I think there is something I need to get from Elton John.
I was listening to I want love I really identified. I love when that happens. When music says everything you can't put into words. I love it.

What do I need to get from Daniel What the fuck is my subconscious saying?
