This is the only song on the record I've had someone ask me the meaning behind and I realized then it was tough to answer. It's about expectations, obligations, responsibilities and the freedom in not meeting any of them while still trying to maintain healthy relationships.
lyrics
We left it all to come undone
The only trace we left were these dirty hand prints pressed on walls and anything that felt like home
As we strived for disenchantment we were still surprised when that’s what we got
We know we’ll never miss how fast this ground would give
We thought we’d know
We knew we’d know
Then we fumbled through the lines we stole
That’s when we knew
They’re always ready to forget you
As we all forgot the words we used to know
Our heads stuck stopping cast stones
They asked what salvation meant to me
With that schoolgirl sneer through stained grey teeth
I thought it might just be the right to disappear, definitively
Who says the french can't do some proper emo? Also awesome album opening with the Stand by Me references. The tracks are absolutely banging and the whole album is worth listening to. dominikgray
