	The first time I heard this song I was going through a rather rough stage in my life and even though it is one of the most depressing songs I had ever heard it helped me out a lot and there is not a day that goes by that I turn back and listen to this song as an affirmation of the human spirit. Its meaning has been described perfectly by everyone who has already posted by here but there is something that I would like to mention here and this goes for every single Stabbing Westward song I have ever heard. They are true artists and I applaud them even though they broke up recently they have so much great music and fans that I believe we shall be happy for years on what we have. This is my all time favorite song and I just wanted to post a little something and thank who ever put the lyrics up

	Fucking amazing song. I love this song to death. The words, the music, Chistopher's voice..... one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. RIP Stabbing Westward. We'll miss ya...

	Ah, I truly feel this is Stabbing Westward's greatest song. Their pinnacle of achievment amidst a catelogue of wonderful and meaningful songs. This song is brutally honest in its look at loneliness and abandonement, and the power of feeling another warm body next to you when you awaken.

	how can one person consume us so? every inch of them imprinted into our memories. their scent faintly lingers in our nasal passages. they are so far away, after they promised that never in your wildest dreams would they leave you. but they did. and we have to cope with the pain of rejection. music. it solves everything.

	My first few runs through listening to this really tore me up. The theme of it kicked my ass- it was a rough time I was going through. The Darkest Days Album has made Stabbing Westward my all time favorite band, and really filled me back up with some motivation to get what I wanted. But yeah, I didn't know that Chris's girlfriend's death was the inspiration of this music. Damn, that just about brings a whole darker mood to it all!

	Definitely the best song on the album and definitely the right place for the track. A great way to end the album. I love the lyrics though I know I can't relate so well. Very very powerful. SW was my favorite band and this was the first CD i ever owned so of course i played it a lot.. somehow their style never gets old for me. This is art.

No Picture Tyler Average	#8 by Tyler Green at Jul 13, 2006 at 4:12 PM EST
	When I was 16 I just couldn't stand listening to this song, it tore me apart everytime, how I wanted to be with this girl and there was no way to do it. I didn't miss waking up beside her, I never had the chance at all...
