| I love the shift in the tune from one part of the song to another. The first verse transitions very nicely to the "Nothin's gonna save you" part, which then transitions into "I can see..." which is easily one of the best moments on the album. | |

| Sometimes when I miss my mom I put this song on, and I don't feel alone. I guess this is how they sorta must feel when they are on tour. Missing everyone and everything. But hey that's what we get for going on our own. | |

| Im a super big fan of the vines,and i love every song by them. But theres something about this song that makes it so fantastic, its so simple yet enlightening. The ending is espcially good, i think influenced by the beatles(im only sleeping). Its crazy good. | |

| i think its about how running away wont solve anything because nothing out there will save you and running away wont make you free because youre never free until youre cast away (let go by your parents) | |
