this isn't really talking about a specific graduation, in my opinion. it's more about people tell you you're not going to be anything, and wanting to prove them wrong. i think it's about wanting to be able to feel proud about yourself and what you do.

I've read in a couple different places that the song was about male prostitution, not sure if that is true or not, but it definitely makes you look differently at the song.

I kind of think the last line sort of sounds like he is waiting to find out his scores on tests or something. "echo fading candle blow, did you flash out long ago, cross my fingers, i don't know" It kind of seems like that because like after finals or big tests your brain is like fried so maybe echo fading candle blow, like the candle has blown out, and the echo is fading would mean he is just like exhuasted and did you flash out long ago, could go with that too. Obviously cross my fingers would be like hoping he did good. Well just kind of a random unique take on that verse.

I don't know if any of you guys hit it right; however, it's great how this song can be interpreted in so many ways. I'm pretty sure that its cannot graduate? This song is about a relationship that is heavily involved in drug use. There are a few references to slang meth terms. Poked you down below really gives it away though. I think its about a fight to stop using or get someone else to stop using.

i havent really read wat u guys have said about this song, but as far as graduation goes, i think its about graduating from obstacles in life. i still like to listen to it as graduating from high school tho, since i only have 2 more weeks left:D
