No Picture micheal Lead Player	#1 by micheal mceachern at Aug 18, 1975 at 10:43 PM EST
	This song does kick ass. It says "fuck you!" Crank your stereo up REAL LOUD and that part that sounds like a little reak of silence, you'll actually hear him scream "FUCK YOU!" I think the reason he does this is because it's what he really wants to say but he's not too proud of it, cuz there still are alot of feelings there. So he says it but puts it low to show that. Makes sense to me.

	The feeling to just get over someone is great... you realize you don't need them to live.

No Picture Austin Average	#6 by Austin Schrauben at Dec 5, 1983 at 1:20 PM EST
	this is such a different song for poison the well. im sick of everyone saying they sold out or are trying to be pop punk or any of that moronic non-sense. but this song is so perfect. the first time i heard jeff morena sing it i just had to learn the lyrics and sing along. i wish they would do it live sometime that would rule.

No Picture Dean Rhythm Player	#7 by Dean M at Mar 10, 1985 at 9:02 AM EST
	i love this song because i sang it to my ex gf...its a beutiful song but i think it means the complete audiance its not about missing someone but about the feeling,finally being over them..

No Picture Matt Lead Player	#8 by Matt Cromwell at Dec 28, 1985 at 8:43 PM EST

No Picture St. Jimmy Wanna Be	#9 by St. Jimmy at Jun 16, 1986 at 6:08 PM EST
	i absolutely adore this song and poison the well... but there's a mistake in the lyrics here - the song actually says "creatures cold but here for me" not grey chairs.

	"What I'd do for one more day without you" That sole line is so beautiful. Aah I know how you feel, Jeff...

No Picture Mike Average	#20 by Mike Murphy at Dec 31, 2001 at 4:04 PM EST
	This song is very fucken awesome.. I can just sit here and listen and listen til the end of time!!! PTW is one of the best hardcore bands I've heard in awhile!! Hmmm..thats odd cause I swear it says, "all i wanted to say was...melt away" too. I dont know if its right, but it sure as hell sounds right!

No Picture Joe Average	#21 by Joe Montana at Dec 21, 2002 at 12:26 AM EST
	oh yah, and the part after that is "miles away, but you still seem to be here" he never says melt away.

No Picture Sam Wanna Be	#22 by Sam Payne at Feb 16, 2005 at 2:20 AM EST
	Something slices into him, but is it the presence of someone else, or his own unfamiliar presence of mind that is continually haunting him? Observe, "All I wanted to say was fuck you miles away but you still seem to be here" Here? In a specified geographical location, or is it more than that? Spiritual hauntedness, physical and continual haunting presence, like some dark spectre over foreign shores? Nobody's to know but he's sure broken and trying to fix himself up good. All power to him.

No Picture robert Professional	#23 by robert cunningham at Apr 26, 2005 at 4:15 AM EST
	jax u r a cock, it does say gray chairs, not creatures

No Picture Ryan Sutherland Rhythm Player	#24 by Ryan Sutherland at Nov 17, 2005 at 6:56 PM EST
	"i couldve sworn it says *all i wanted to say was...melt away" pretty sure you're right. though if you listen carefully, you can hear someone scream, "fuck you!" in the background.

No Picture Razor wrist Lead Player	#25 by Razor wrist at Mar 16, 2006 at 12:01 PM EST
	everyone knows about the "fuck you" part by now... but some say it's because he is ashamed of what he wants to say. i think it's more about what jeff really wants to say but can't find the right words. this song definately shows the diversity of the band and shows what they are fully capable"of doing. pulling out an accoustic song in the middle of a hardcore album and then putting a song like sticks and stones directly after it takes talent and adversity. ptw is quite a band.
