I woke in the snow with my face on the pavement and icicles hanging off most of my clothes
10 picket fences for 10 perfect houses with green little gardens lined up in a row
I walked past the gardens and into the trees
And I found myself rather lost
And I picked a nice clearing
I dropped to my knees
I said I will get home at any cost
But they found me in the snow
Icicles on all my clothes
Surrounded in the splinters of 10 picket fences for 10 perfect houses
There shattered and scattered all across the road
I stand and I look at the wreckage around me
I whistle and turn
I start walking home
And it's back through the gardens and through the same trees to the clearing I passed out in before
And I threw up my hands to admit my defeat
When the chemicals erupted once more
And the clearing grew and began to bend
And all the sun light started pouring in
And you walked up, all bathed in white
And you stripped me naked
You held me tight
But they found me in the snow
Icicles on all my clothes
Surrounded in the splinters
I think He's talking about being lost in this own thoughts "10 picket fences for 10 perfect houses" are the things ppl want of him or for him but he doesn't want that so he "walks past them" but then he doesn't know what to do. aka lost... but he's knows he's going to find who he needs to be "at any cost" meaning that he shatters the world he used to know. i think the wistle has something to do with he thought he had found his solution but then something happens and it circles around on him. Just as he gives up someone comes to help him. a friend or someone closer but they are pure "bathed in white"
and they strip his mind of the way he used to think and helps him to find what he needed... i think the last few lines basically means that even though he hurts and things went bad it's the past. and i think the THEY he refers to happens to be the world and the ppl who are judgeing him.
