| Isn't this one of Hawthorne Height's softest songs? It's very soothing, slightly different from usual HH but still good. | |

| This song is amazing. It rips a hole right in my heart. This song is about a relationship, but things keep on getting in the way, but they can't leave each other. The boy wants to take it slower and really understand what the relationship means, but the girl is taking things too fast. Myabe she's trying to be the perfect girl or something. But it's true, you can't cover up how you feel when you're in love, and maybe that's what she's trying to do. Maybe her parents don't want the relationship to happen, and she's trying to lie to her parents and maybe him. I think that the relationship in the song ended, and he really misses her. He feels alone. And maybe the relationship is deffinitley over, and they don't even talk to eachother anymore. This song breaks my heart. It's so powerful and makes me want to cry. 1 2 Next | |

| My ex said this song reminded him of me, once. Ever since then it gives me that light airy feeling in your stomach that runs up your throat. It's a really beautiful song, and I agree that it's about a relationship he wants to put time into and make it last and take it slow because he really likes her, but she's going fast. | |

| This one strikes a chord, to say the least. When I first heard this song I had a relationship with a guy that was just like this, we liked each other a lot but too many things kept us apart (me leaving for college 500 miles away, him having a gf, my over protective parents) fun things like that. Favorite line by far- "You don't even have to speak because I can hear your heartbeat Fluttering like butterflies searching for a drink" ...so true. We don't talk anymore, but I still love this song. Brings back good memories. | |

| Just thinking about this song makes you cry almost. I think it's about being in a band & not being able to see your wife because if it. Just think about it though. If you have ever been separated from a loved one you know how painful it is. You sit and think about that person daily and it depresses you. Now imagine what it's like being in a band. You're on the road 24/7 and you don't really have time for anything. Imagine how depressed you would get just by thinking about your wife that you can't even see really. If this song doesn't atleast make you feel sad then you're not human. | |

| I think it's about the guy and he and some girl were going out but too many things were getting in the way so they ended up breaking apart. He misses her and can't get over her so he's thinking back on the day they first met and the last time he saw her. "Lets to try to remember these days back in December Our lives were very different I was lonely when we first met A small upstairs apartment Driving through the darkness to get back home before they even knew you were gone You don't even have to speak because I can hear your heartbeat Fluttering like butterflies searching for a drink You don't have to cover up how you feel when your in love I'll always know im not enough to even make you think I miss you so much, a self inflicted coma The days drag on I never thought of running with their feet And when i feel the stress, I'm lonely and depressed I picture you in the dress you wore four weeks ago" Maybe? It sounds so different than their other ones... its so soft... | |

| i orignally thought this song was about some sort of breakup or separation, but this is what i'm thinking now... the their and they that is mentioned throughout the song is the girl's parents. the boy and girl are in love, but might be moving too fast for the parents to hand and he wants to make it last.. moving too fast in the instance of staying out late and such.. he mentions if only they were all alone, this could be to the parents of the girl, because the parents have had each other for a considerable amount of time i'm sssuming, but if only they were alone they could understand their situation... OR it could be to all the lovers out there, if only they were all alone they could understand separation. | |

| the song is about a boy that is was so sad "I was lonely when we first met" and just wants to spend as much time as he can with her "Driving through the darkness before they even knew you were gone" but he just wants to be with her forever "We gotta make this last" even though she might be trying to hide it "You don't have to cover up how you feel when your in love" and in the end the have to break up because of "Their World" "I know it hurts to feel so alone I'm by myself, more then you can know" | |
