James Blunt: Wise Men Meaning

Wise Men Lyrics

She said to me, "Go steady on me.

Won't you tell me what the Wise Men said?

When they came down from Heaven,

Smoked nine 'til seven,

All the shit that they could find,

But they couldn't escape from you,

Couldn't be free of...

   I thought it was about 3 men who bullied James in the past.

   To me is feels very surreal, like the 3 wise men are demons (and it makes me think of Silent Hill for some reason.)

   Clearly the song is bout 3 high authority very sophisticated people who take drugs, just read the lyrics, its not that bloody hard.

   This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

   I'm really not sure what this song is about, and it really bugs me because I really like this song!!!I think the first part could be about doing something stupid, probably smoking or something, ('and now they know there's no way out and they're really sorry now for what they've done they were three wise men just trying to have some fun') so yeah..tell me what you think

   I'm not completely sure what this song is about, but it's a really good song. I was wondering if James Blunt was 'committing suiside' at the end of a lot of his music videos, and if he is, why? I wish I had some answers to the lyric interpretation, but sorry, I don't:D

    This is really hard like two meanings or something and the film clip is even more confusing. I mean he basically sets himself on fire, or something close to that. What I want to know is, is this a religious song or not? Can anyone explain?
