Yeah, I just think it's different from what they usually do and people didn't take to it quickly... anyway, i think this guy may have followed this girl around, she was a bad ass girl always doing stupid stuff protesting and whatnot maybe, getting in trouble, and he though shed like him more if he was like that too... in the end her love of danger turned out to be a passing interest. A lot of people try to be someone they're not because they're trying to impress someone |

I agree with mxrudeross, "we're lacking something, something good" makes it seem like he believes there's something else out there to be taken into account, maybe a higher being |

"You said, you are of the earth and I am of the sky
I don't even know what the hell that means"
Hah, i really love that line. It's kind of funny, embodies the bullshit excuses girls give sometimes |

I think this is about being optimistic. "Be a dream in color even on a winter's night" "Why does a willow weep when all I see's a tree grow" Society sometimes casts life in a shadow: in a small scale, naming a willow "weeping," or winter nights having to be dark and cold, he tells people to "find a story of your own" |

"we are lucky/we are golden/We have stolen manners/in the days when we were one" When you're with someone for a long time you're so comfortable around them, you pick up little things they do and do them yourself. And when you find yourself doing them still, it's like a painful reminder, but in this song he sees it as proof they should still be together |

I take this song pretty literally, his girl is in the hospital, maybe she will die very soon, "I don't see you anymore
Since the hospital" "I lift your head while, they change the hospital sheets " but he can't help thinking that she'll return, and he continues to make his life plans with her in them, even though she probably won't make it. "The words they use so lightly I only feel for you" Those words being, "i love you" |

I know I've played this game before. They've broken up, but the girl hints to him where she'll be somehow, and he goes there even though he hates to, seeing her flirting with everyone, with her newestlove interest. She does it just to have his attention, she may not even care about the guy she's with, only that she's making this guy jealous |

I found this song to be kind of cynical as well... it seems like he keeps breaking this girl down, but she wont leave him because hes the only thing she has in the world. An emotionally abusive relationship |

Sorry bout double posting, wanted to add something i dont think was touched on: The lyrics "'cause I don't care" tell how the guy has to harden up and seem cold to have the courage to break up the relationship |

This song is so moving, it embodies the feelings perfectly. It seems like this is the way many relationships go. You have good memories, but after a while things just go downhill. Usher's song, "let it burn," reminds me of this also. Maybe not everyone's been through it, but sometimes you know the best thing is to end a relationship, even if you have strong feelings still. |

I also think this song is about a guy who's want to be with this girl but is afraid to commit. "And I let you down and I said I'm sorry/But the light, it falls on my castle walls" He's built a wall around himself and feels threatened or scared that this girl has this effect on him. I think they have had a relationship in the past and when they'd sleep together he refused to spend the night "No you never say goodnight," and he's having trouble making up his mind to commit fully to this girl or continue to cop out. He's secure in saying maybe forever, never having to actually decide: "an ode to maybe" |

Really, TMBG did say this song was about a nightlight. It was on their website, although it is true that a lot of their songs have no meaning at all, such as Particle Man. I remember them saying it was kind of funny how many peole try to find the deeply hidden meaning in that song, and many of their others. |
