Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Wacko Average	#1 by Wacko Jacko at Sep 29, 2007 at 7:50 PM EST
	This song takes it name from a poem of the same name by Charles Bukowski, found collected in Bukowski's book Burning in Water, Drowning in Flame.

No Picture chris Average	#2 by chris at Sep 30, 2007 at 5:32 AM EST
	I think it's more. I think the whole album could be about Buddy finding himself and coming to terms with his childhood and family. Still Searching just brings up that kind of subject to me.

No Picture silent Rhythm Player	#3 by silent support at Oct 1, 2007 at 3:16 AM EST
	Okay...First of all, I have no idea whether the members of Senses Fail are satanist. But out of personal experience, I think this song is just about a guy whos faith is weak, like he says in the song, just because his faith is weak, doesnt mean he doesnt have faith at all. My faith in God was weak at one point. I tried to commit suicide. The Lord, Dear Heavenly Father, saved me. I think this song is about the transition of thinking you have faith, to letting your faith down, to understanding that faith is what keeps us motivated.

No Picture Aleksandar Average	#4 by Aleksandar Radošević at Oct 2, 2007 at 9:31 PM EST
	yep, all three songs are linked. i love it. william tell didnt kill his kid, but in the song it means he does die, cus he's falling and once he's there no one can help him. its like suicide...? he's the one that jumps off a building right? hmmm i love this cd.

No Picture alex Lead Player	#5 by alex beaulieu at Oct 3, 2007 at 2:40 PM EST
	I'm sure you've heard the story of William Tell, you just probably don't remember the name. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Tell

No Picture !Ace Rhythm Player	#6 by !Ace Youngs at Oct 5, 2007 at 3:45 AM EST
	not that its a big deal, but its "i'm the arrow" not "and the arrow"

No Picture drw Average	#7 by drw drw at Oct 5, 2007 at 9:23 PM EST
	I agree with all those songs connecting. I'd just like to point out how the cross upside down looks like an arrow...you know...one being shot to hell...maybe from the top of a building. Yep.

No Picture Josh Average	#8 by Josh Duncan at Oct 6, 2007 at 8:32 AM EST
	Punkee. I sorta read The Scarlet Letter, because I had to read it for summer reading this year, but I only read SparkNotes. I can't say this reminded me of it at all. In what way do you see a connection to that book? The tune sorta sounds hopeful, not like a Senses Fail song. But yes, it is purely awesome.

No Picture Snap! Crackle! Average	#9 by Snap! Crackle! Josh!! waldenmaier at Oct 11, 2007 at 6:46 PM EST
	calling all cars is linked too.

No Picture nate Average	#10 by nate eastman at Oct 11, 2007 at 10:22 PM EST
	this song is really cool. its really relaxing, i'm not quite sure waht the meaning is. But from just scanning the lyrics, its about someone falling (either emotionally or physically), dying or something of the sort. good song tho!

No Picture Terence Average	#11 by Terence Taylor at Oct 16, 2007 at 2:51 AM EST
	Well he deffinently fell off something and layed there looking at the sky and the shapes the clouds were making. And as a priest and some other guy tries to help him he rejects their help. I don't understand all of the chorus though.. I have no idea who William Tell is, but he shot the character from hell.

No Picture christian Average	#12 by christian parnell at Oct 16, 2007 at 3:11 AM EST
	this song definately gave me the chills when i first listened to it.....but overall good song and good album, though its not really something i would have pictured senses fail doing. but can someone tell me what all this song is about??

No Picture Kyle Average	#13 by Kyle Bish at Oct 17, 2007 at 8:21 AM EST
	Based on the songs we've seen so far, the B-side "Stretch Your Legs To Coffin Length," and the title of the album, the theme seems to be finding something to believe in (or not). The B-side and this song make me think that especially, what with the religious themes.
