It's really messy

| I've always loved this song, my friend has the CD & everytime she came over I'd make sure she'd bring it. But I'm not going to analyse it to death like the rest of you. I'm just glad I have it burned now it's so great. :) | |

| Actually, I believe the song is about perspective. The fact that you are drowning, flayling your hands around, screaming out names, it may look like you are saying, hey look at me. It's about how we all perscieve stuff, in average life. Next time you look at some thing that is easly misunderstood, get another persons opinion. Our Lady Peace... How far is it to peace, the piper sighed, The Solitary, sweating as he paused. Asphalt the noon; the ravens, terrified, Fled Carrion thunder that percussion caused... Yes, the band's name is a name of a poem, this is how they got the name... :) | |

| I used to think of this song in a negative way, the people watching the person in trouble drown, but making no move to help him. I've done a lot of thinking about this song, and I think what it comes down to is that, the speaker (singer, whoever) doesn't know how to help his "drowning" friend so he just waits on the shore for his friend to come to him to talk. The speaker wants his friend to know that he's there for him, when he's ready. At least, that's what I think. Tenacious Joe, the song "Little Things" is by Good Charlotte. | |

| This song is about finding a friend who won't laugh at you while you trip. It's about finding a friend who is as clumsy as you are. The person waving are the fake friends you have who will be you friends until you really need help. | |
