 The 3rd time the vocals come in


 1. verse
    
    You just stood there screaming
    fearing no one was listening to
    you They say the empty can rattles 
    most. The sound of your own voice 
    must soothe you, hearing only what 
    you wanna hear, an knowing only
    what you heard.

Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Marks Average	#1 by Marks at Nov 29, 1971 at 1:42 AM EST
	I think it might be about someone who is really really annoying and yet thinks everyone loves him. He also constantly complains about having a bad life and stuff without even caring that people have much worse situations than him. I'm not sure how it would fit in but just a side note i think the line; "The empty can rattles the most." means the stupidest people have very strong opinions and voice them whereas intelligent people tend to keep quiet.

No Picture Flappy Average	#2 by Flappy Bob at May 16, 1975 at 2:19 PM EST
	The start of the song is just the sickiest! I can listen to that none stop!

No Picture David Average	#3 by David Gilmour at May 19, 1985 at 4:25 PM EST
	so shoot me but I like Dark Tranquillity's cover much better than the original.

No Picture Kazza Average	#4 by Kazza at Oct 9, 1996 at 8:53 AM EST
	An outsider view of someone wandering in self-pity and having a very pessimistic view of the rest of the world.
