| I think it's about living your life, making the most of it while you can before your time runs out. | |

| about knowing how friendships on a level can be false while remaining the most true emotion and positive thing for someone..knowing all of the shit we've seen and not having anyone to relate with | |

| i dont care what the real meaning is cuz i want it to relate to me, and thats what good music does it relates to everyone because its ambiguious and i love the opening line"life sucks sumtimes" its the most honest line ive ever heard | |

| It's about his emotions as a whole. its about religion and spoiled friendships and just...damage. The damage in his heart that is still there to this day. This song is really touching because I really try to look over the words because i personally enjoy knowning what they mean when I listen to them. I dont listen to music that does not express me, that would be pointless and stupid and I dont feel thats what music is about. So when someone writes a song like this, about how shitty everything is but them managing to keep their head up and not giving in is incredible. | |
