it's a question, an expression of sorrow, disbelief and yearning among many things. i relate to this song purely because i've run away fro, loads of things and people close to me have run away from me...

In my opinion this song means that... there is this guy and him and his g/f are broken up and he wants to know why she left him, he helped her out and was going to do anything for her, he still wanted to be there for her but she didnt...This song made me cry when i heard it cause of what me and my ex just went through.

Hoobastank is awesome! This is their best song. Everyone has a time like this in their lives, and i'm in that moment now. I love listening to this song, and it does remind me of that one person.
