Meh why don't they ever ever come here???? I WANT TO SEE THEM! Theyv came like once and that was it, tut tut Scotland needs some good bands to come, Im sick of new found glory playing every month! I love this song too, gives me goosebumps, so hypnotic. Chorus leaves alot to be desired tho.

man shut the hell up DreamofGlycerine alright he is prolly the same fan as i am i love their music becaus i can relate to it and your cocky, just cus you followed the band ever scince they started doesnt give you the rite to say who is a fan and who isnt alright anyone that is willing to go see their concert or buy an album is a fan to me, and let olp themselves tell you who their fans are people like you probobaly scare them cus your last message seems as if you stock them or something... and going by what i hear artists love to hear about people that can relate to their music instead of people that just ador them and GCrocks sounds like a person that can relate to it or just plane likes their song ... and dont get mad at me ok cus i came on this to see what the song was about and what you said just pissed me off so i felt like i should say something ... anyways Rager sounds rite and is rite about the lyrics they are wrong up there

I love the bridge in this song, and the song as a whole is awesome. Took me a while to get into it.

So here I am browseing through a site which I find quite interesting, and I come by stupid immature people who have nothing better to do with there lives then try to bring others down. DreamofGlycerine all I have to say to you is shut up and grow up. Really though do you realize how immature you look sitting there ranting on some person you dont even know, cause of something as small as a grammatical error? This site is designed for people to give their oponions on what a song means to them, one of the keywords is them. Who are you to say if they are right or wrong, you dont know how they think and feel. Also just because someone has not been listening to the band from day one, doesn't make them a fan. Trend whore? Thats one of the stupidest things I have ever herd someone say, my sister says stuff like that and shes twelve! So just do us all a favour and leave people alone.feel free to express your oponions on a song or band but not on other people,That is not what this site was created for. People who slander away on a keyboard ranting at others looking like there competeing in the special olympics, even if you win your still retarted! It doesn't make you a bigger or better person enough said! As to every one else, keep listening to Our Lady Peace. They are an amazing band!

Oh my God, it does my head in, on every song there is always a song about 'real fans'. It's pathetic. If you like a song, you like a song, end of

Anyways... This song is about a fight him and Chantel Kreviazuk (his longtime girlfriend). They got into an argument before she left for a Tour. He wrote this while she was gone as an apology. BTW those lyrics are wrong.

stop... just stop... stop with the caps lock, please. JxVirgo is right. people, please use correct grammar, or at least try your hardest to. as far as GCrocks's comment... *WELL SORRY!! if you are a REAL our lady peace fan you would find it hard to pick your fav. song to THERE IS JUST TO DAMN MANY GOOD ONES!!!*... it seriously pained me to read that. first of all, i'm guessing that you, GCrocks, think that you are the only "REAL" our lady peace fan here. may i state that you are wrong. you probably only heard about OLP after 'gravity' came out, you damn trend whore. and i'm also guessing that you started liking GC after 'lifestyles' came out. once again; trend whore. i'm so sick of you fair weather 'fans' coming in here saying that you are so-and-so's biggest fan, when you basically know only their most famous song. so many 'true' fans have been following OLP for years. for instance, i have loved OLP since their demo was released. do you know how long ago that was? so please do not come in here and make comments on what "REAL" fans should/should not like. i am a very strong fan and i happend to have my favorite OLP songs, and then i have my least favorites. i can admit when OLP has a bad song. i don't need to be like you and say that "THERE IS JUST TO DAMN MANY GOOD ONES!!!" just to seem like i am a all mighty fan of this band. so shut the fuck up and go back to fingering GC's vaginal music. i'm suprised that you haven't used "ROFL; RAWK; LOLLOLLOLLOL; KEWL" or any other annoying poseur terms in your incoheirent speeches. seriously, i could make more sense typing with my penis (if i had one). peace out.

I think this song has several meanings. One..that life is hard, and its so easy to get lost in, but you'll make it through. Its a song of friendship. Kinda saying that no matter how much you think you figure things out, life will throw you a curve and show you that you don't..and thats just the way it is. You'll make it through everything. Like he's trying to tell her not to underestimate herself and that no matter how lost she feels, she's not alone.
