| I think this song is the saddest song I've ever seen played live. *sigh* I suggest not having a knife handy while you listen. | |

| when did he last play it live? apparently he doesn't play it anymore, which sucks, because i bet this is such a sweet song live. The meaning is pretty straight forward, don't think anyone needs to dwell on some deep interpretations here. | |
