| all i have to say for this song is "god bless catastrophe" and "drive yourself insane tonight, its not that far away and i just filled up your tank earlier today. No1 can literally drive themselves insane, even with a full tank of gas... Dan makes it seem at least "possibe" with this smooth chorus, and a great song in general.Edited by oofus on December 11 2005, at 12:52PM | |

| I think this song is about coping with overwhelming bad luck. He's on the verge of insanity because he's lost faith in any means of alleviating his situation. | |

| i think this song is kinda about growin up and having to let go of some things in order to do that but sometimes it leaves you feeling worse than what you have grown up from. Hence why he is feeling lost. | |

| Amazing song! and btw, Matt is a former San Franciscan, and of course we all know that they hail from Chicago.. so I think he's referring to that. | |

| I'm not sure on the whole meaning of the song but the "drive urself insane tonight. It's not that far away and i just filled up your tank earlier today" is one of my favourite ever one(three) liners...its so witty and clever...wat i think it means is that the person continues to just go fuckin crazy or whatever but its really him who makes them crazy...He is filling their tank to give them the "fuel" to go crazy/insane with. | |

| It's just about how he wants to get on with life, but it's not going to plan and hes 'lost' and on the verge of going insane. SoConstantine... it is metaphorical, becuase he's on about 'driving' himself insane, and he's implying that he's could easily be 'driven' insane because the petrol tank in his car is filled. | |

| the part that goes "drive yourself insane tonight its not that far away and i just filled up your tank earlier today" is just a play on words. when you drive someone or something insane you are making them crazy, and when you drive a car you need gas in your tank, so theyre just being funny with words...you cant literally DRIVE things insane. i dont know exactly what this song is about but it has a sad air to it, like he's giving up on something or everything. | |

| when they play this song acoustic it is amazing. i think its great how derek plays guitar with them. and when he chimes in with his vocals it sounds a lot better. derek does have a good voice. | |
