I've noticed that people who die young sometimes do have a sense of personal mortality (which Ochs writes about here), but he is using this song to encourage action; make hay while the sun shines for one day we all die. If you want the clearer warnings of suicide go to the post-Chicago "No More Songs," and "Rehearsals for Retirement." |
