| I couldn't believe it when I read this, that other people actually appreciated the breakdown, too. I had the breakdown stuck in my head for probably 3 days until I went through all my records to find the song. This, Jodie, and Holly Hox Forget Me Nots are my favorite STD songs of all time. | |

| I agree with you all. The breakdown is amazing! Totally underrated. I've had the whole last part on my away message thing, cuz I just love Chris's lyrics, and this is about the epitome of it... | |

| I remember when I sat on those steps watching the moon chase the sky back until the world seemed like it would explode and I could picture going up with it it'd be just how I'd like to go and I'd sing. ::sigh:: I love this song. | |

| ~it was like music~ That line gets me, very simple yet very intense at the same time. It was like music, kinda like how I felt when I met this girl who adored Saves The Day just as much as me. After all this time of liking her and then finally kissing her, it was like music. Its hard to express properly what I mean, but I think the "It was like music" is shadowed by the end, which is also incredible. | |

| Probably the most underrated Saves The Day song ever... screaming the breakdown when seeing them live brought tears to my eyes :) | |

| Definately one of their best songs. It's extremely under-rated, the breakdown at the end is one of the greatest pieces of music... ever. | |
