lets go down now
into the darkness
of your thoughts
hurry up now
we're waiting for
us to fall
fall to pieces now ( fall to pieces)
a broken mirror ( fall to pieces)
and your life

the silence in black and white
falling forward as she walks toward the light

RIGHT NOW
im outside of your window with my radio

i sleep with one eye open so i can see you breathing (i sleep with one eye open)
i follow your chest bone (so i can see you breathing)
some saw that i can see you, i can hear you breathing....exhale


the silence in black and white
RIGHT NOW
im outside of your window with my radio
RIGHT NOW
im outside of your window with my radio

NOW NOW

im outside of your window with my radio ( wishing you could be there)
im outside of your window with my radio ( wish you could be there)
im outside of your window with my radio ( wishing you could be there)

im outside of your window with my radio
you are the only station
you play the song i know
you are the song i know

    Song Meaning:Guys, in the album booklet the lead singer explains how it's directly based off the movie "Say Anything..." and he wrote it for his actual girlfriend.

    General Comment:This song speaks deeply in how much ignorance we really have in our teen years when it comes to love. Not to generalize or add baseless vitriol, but when you obsess over someone who literally doesn't know shit about you or when you don't know shit about them- it could hit hard if cannot love yourself first. I've dealt with this during my High School years of all things. Especially on internet chats where sexting is common.

    Honestly that is why having sex as a true adult could be much more preferred even outside of religious morals. Teen love is more chemical than mental or meaningful.

    A major focusing point on these "crushes" kids have, if it is for someone they know nothing about- they can and will do whatever it takes to bring that boy/girls attention onto them. There are a lot of young assholes that would play hard to get just to see how much of a potential creep a peer is. I've been demeaned for simply having a special education. This factor made one girl who was actually attracted to me falling head over heels seem almost real, the relationship only lasted half the year. As a proper breakup hardens, we never spoke at all and the reasons behind her change of heart made perfect sense. I was smacked with a harder reality when we made contact again and saw her flirting with a stranger online. This was after saying how relationships in the period of our lives were "Bound to fail". It wasn't like we were lost at all and distracted from our priorities as it seemed, she just nonchalantly started going against her own word and lying to my face.

    I've seen beautiful women during the last years of my high school life and tried to impress them, and fell flat afterwards. I did what I thought was best and just not confront persona social dilemmas or impress anyone. Since 2009 I don't feel entitled to give anyone a time of day unless me and a person can actually have something real and not show off at all. So the list of things I should do before graduating was never done at all, with only a few done shortly before the end, or right AFTER Senior year. (I.E. get high, walk off campus when school hours are in session, become a phenomenon of sorts)

    In basic; know how to feel for yourself and stop being a trendy showoff in order to go by your heart.

    General Comment:My interpretation of the song is not that he's a creepy stalker of this girl; but possibly a heart-broken ex? "Falling forward as she walks towards the light" could mean that she's moved on and it's killing him. "I'm outside of your window" could mean that he's there for her if she ever decides to come back and that she's all he wants. I actually love this song. =)

    General Comment:oh and also, i dont totally agree with the people saying he screwed up and hes sorry. i think she did break up with him, but it was because of personal problems(like she didnt think she deserved him) but they still love eachother and hes trying to get her to come back to him
