Main Riff- through the whole song-
G--------------------------
D--------------------------
A-------------------------- REPEAT
E--7-8-9--0-1----7h7-8-9---
*---> *
7 hit is very fast- like a grace note to the actual 7
* in those spots you can do a hammer-on- it's optional, but it
makes it sound more like
the song- (The actual song, I think is done with synth, so- you
wont get the exact sound)
Variation- later in the song

| i like what closer said, and here i am offering a second interpretation to it as well. Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away --- basically i think this song is about regret...here trent is slipping away b/c he is regretting sooo many things in his life and is leading into deterioration Talking to myself all the way to the station --- he is regretting what he has done by talking to himself Pictures in my head of the final destination --- now he is wondering what will happen to him because of what he has done. i personally think closer is right, this is just what i saw and im just throwing it out there for any comments | |

| i really like this song =) to me, it means someone who is upset about something and tries to get over it .. but when they think they're over it.. it comes back stronger and harder then ever. and they just keep trying to fix themselves up.. but just cant. xx | |

| I think this song is about death. "Talking to myself all the way to the station Pictures in my head of the final destination All lined up (All the one's that aren't allowed to stay) Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away" I think he is imagining Heaven, while he is waiting in the queue to be judged. He knows he will go to Hell, so he tries to reach Heaven, but he keeps slipping away. Well, I hope you understand. English is not my native language. | |

| I can't believe no one's had the interpretation that this could have been written a year in advance for the movie, or that perhaps the movie was based on the lyrics. "Pictures in my head of the final destination (vision of death) All lined up (specific order in death's design) All the one's that aren't allowed to stay (those that died in the beginning) Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away (The protagonist always dies anyway, no matter how hard they fight) | |

| i agree with overfire.. i always saw "trying to save myself but my self keeps slipping away" as trying to save myself from depression/suicide but i keep slipping away before i can | |

| I think this song's about just walking out in a crowded city, and killing someone for the hell of it. It sounds sooooo hott. | |
