Hoobastank is an amazing band, and it is truly shown in this song....I first heard it on the Scorpion King Soundtrack, but I wish I had've heard it sooner! The lyrics just catch me...I can't explain how much I love this song.

This song is all about a relationship and how it was ended for some reason, but he just couldn't let go. As much as he tries to go on, he just can't let go. Near the end he says that "it's finally over" meaning that he was finally able to let go and have closure. Just my interpretation.

Awesome song! Great lyrics, I know exactly how he feels, "Feeling emptiness inside A part of me already died But I pretended to go on Like everything's ok And all we built began to fall As I began to lose it all Shut my eyes and set me free Cause I was scared to see That we weren't who we used to be So now I'm... Trying hard to let go, let you go But I can't seem to loosen my grip Trying hard to let go, let you go Let you go, go." I'm trying to let go too!

I love this song from hoobastank and what i think is funny is that people usually only comment on songs that have been released and say they love the band... if they loved it that much theyd buy the album and actually know the other songs. but oh well thats a different subject. I love this song because its about someone trying to let someone else go but they cant as they are to attached to them. This happens to me so much so i can really relate to it
