| I think this song is about someone close to you dying and how you want to be with them, i.e. commit suicide. However, the person who is searching for their loved one is crying out to the others to keep them in check with these lyrics: "Hear me And if I close my mind in fear Please pry it open See me And if my face becomes sincere Beware Hold me And when I start to come undone Stich me together Save me And when you see me strut Remind me of what left this outlaw Torn" Even though the other "thing" is gone....you'll go on searching...fucking amazing song. Symphony adds so much texture to the song | |

| I think it's basically about losing someone close to you and never finding someone special enough to replace them Whether it's parents, a close friend or girl/boyfriend. I agree with metallibanger05. Kirk's solo is awesome, and so is James' solo in the lead up to Kirk's. They are an awesome band. This song really makes you just want to hang on to everybody you love, doesn't it? | |

| It's about Cliff. James' unending search for someone or something in his life to replace Cliff. | |

| Okay so this outlaw meets this girl and she totally changes him for the better but then she left him or he left her, I can't remember which. But then he now searches for her because he loves her and what not but he'll never find her, she's long long long gone. Happen to you? | |
