| Not releasing this song as the first single for Slow Motion Daydream is the single worst mistake that Everclear ever made in their career. As for the meaning, it's specifically about 9/11 (either about a person, people or just the USA in general), but the lyrics can apply to any relationship. | |

| Hmm, maybe this song is referring to Sept. 11th? It could be that, and the person he is talking about perhaps died in the tragic attack. | |

| This song is, in fact, about 9/11. It's Art's reaction to the events of that day, as well as his concern about what the future holds for society and our way of living. 1 | |

| this song is about a guy who moved on from a girl, but he still kept his eyes on her like watching and protecting her and finds out how she is through his own sources. the reason that they are in differnt worlds is because "this eye for an eye thing it has gone too far" they did it in vengence like the saying an eye for me eye and the part "i don't know anyone who does not hurt inside i would like to believe that we can learn from this and maybe some day make things right" that means that they should stop the vengence and just get along | |
