No... I think it was intended to be called "Wester"... wester is the wind from the west... but I'm with the whole love theory... it make the most sense... 1 2 3 Next

this song is wester by afi, but the band wester has a song afi .... woah ... woah ... i think this song is about being in love with someone and having it be a forbidden love in which they can only consecrate it in the woods at night ... their secret place. they dream of each other until then, and in that one night they can be together.

If any of you ever get a chance to listen to tiger army.. I think you will see a good connection in the style of this song with there music... also Adam Carson, afi's drummer, was in tiger army.

It needn't only be a person who he is in love with. It could be about him indulging himself in anything forbidden which he is captivated by

I wish I knew what the backups during the bridge are....this song is a great one, one of the first I heard, and I agree that it is about the whole forbidden love thing. Great lyrics.

I don`t think the 'smile' is in there. Just a groan. And what are the backing vocals in the breakdown? One of the things that makes AFI special to me and takes them apart from other bands is the way they use backing - even if it`s just 'ooohhh' like in Days of the Pheonix.

Another one of their amazing songs, nearly all of their songs end up with me thinking they're amazing, I agree on the forbidden relationship thing it's a good theory. :crazy:

the joke is about WESTER, the syrup brand, its just a joke. The song was ment to be called weBster i think, but they misprinted it without the B- so it became wester. the missing lyrics are ONE WORLD AWAY WE WERE JUST ONE WORLD AWAY IN SILENT RAPTURE LET US STAY ONE WORLD AWAY ps. join the Despair Faction - AFI's fan club stay fresh!

i think this is sort of a 'romeo and juliet' relationship.. how the montegues and capulets were forbidden to see each other, so they have to go to a secret (but very romantic) hidden place where they ya kno, make out and do there thing.. i think this song is the greatest and i wouldnt even kno about it if it wasnt for my best friend lindsey!!!! thanks to all

I don't know if any of you have heard this before... But I was told by my friend that he wrote it thinking about Syrup in a cafe or something.... Maple Syrup. He's a pretty reliable guy too, so I believe it. There's obviously another meaning, but I guess that sparked it or something...
