It's been a long year since we last spoke
How's your halo
Just between you and I
You and me and the satelites
I never believed you
I only wanted to
Before all this what did I miss?
Do you ever get homesick?
I can't get used to it
I can't get used to it
I'll never get used to it
I'll never get used to it
Remember that night among those same stars
We're in a red car you were sleep at my side
Going in & out of the headlights
Could I have saved you?
Would that have betrayed you?
I want to burn this film
You alone with those pills
What you couldn't do I will
I forgive you
I forgive you
I forgive you
I forgive you
For blue blue skies
I forgive you
How's your halo
Just between you and I
You and me and the satelites
I never believed you
I only wanted to
Before all this what did I miss?
Do you ever get homesick?
I can't get used to it
I can't get used to it
I'll never get used to it
I'll never get used to it
Remember that night among those same stars
We're in a red car you were sleep at my side
Going in & out of the headlights
Could I have saved you?
Would that have betrayed you?
I want to burn this film
You alone with those pills
What you couldn't do I will
I forgive you
I forgive you
I forgive you
I forgive you
For blue blue skies
I forgive you

"How's your halo
Just between you and I
You and me and the satelites
I never believed you
I only wanted to"
The brother probably was being charged for something, but kept saying he was innocent, therefore the halo
"Remember that night among those same stars
We're in a red car you were sleep at my side
Going in & out of the headlights
Could I have saved you?
Would that have betrayed you?"
Maybe Matthew helped his brother to try and run away and now imagine if hea had just turned him in, his brother would be better now
You and me and the satellites
I never believed you
I only wanted to
Meaning: You and me are here on earth. Satellites are constantly in orbit, changing, which is now what has become of this person.
never believing in this person changing their ways but wanting to ever so badly.
Before all of this
What did I miss?
Do you ever get homesick?
What caused this person to go down this dark path? do you ever miss the way it used to be... in your life?
I can’t get used to it
I can’t get used to it
I’ll never get used to it
I’ll never get used to it
Trying to adapt to the person because theres so much love for them. Not being able to face the truth and accept it.
I’m under that night
I’m under those same stars
We all are on the same earth, ( correlation to satellite ) which is considered out of this world, a spectator- but at the same time the subject has became a satellite; out of this world, and not viewing in the same way
"We’re in a red car
You asleep at my side"
Red is the color of firey passion.
"Going in and out of the headlights"
passion is not here nor there.
"Could I have saved you?
Would that’ve betrayed you?
meaning, the passion was so prominent that the important things were overlooked, in which they could have been saved. but love and passion were so strong that the actual issue was overlooked/ ignored.
I wanna burn this film
You alone with those pills
What you couldn’t do I will
I forgive you
I’ll forgive you
I’ll forgive you
I forgive you
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
I’ll forgive you
I forgive you."
I always felt this line was saying, "You could never forgive yourself, but I'll forgive you."
but the real meaning is :
this guy and his friend were in a really bad car accident a year ago. the friend was doing drugs before hand and got behind the wheel. The friend was killed in the crash. The singer is saying that he forgives his friend for the stupid mistake he made that took his life.
I believe it's about losing the one you love in an awful way, by suicide, it also tells us about resign yourself to fate, about forgiving, remembering and forgetting.
By using words: "Before all this what did I miss? Do you ever get homesick?" the author asks missing person about regretting the decision she has made. He cannot get used to a thought she left him in his sorrow and grief.
He dwells on what happened and what could have happened. He wonders if trying to stop the loved one from committing a suicide would have actually been worse than her death, if she awaited the salvation which never came and if that person saw it as a betrayal or she didn't hesitate about the choice that she had made.
He even tries to pretend it wasn't true, but it doesn't change anything, cause she is gone and nothing makes sense anymore.
In the end he says: "I forgive you" and by doing it he doesn't mean only his own point of view. He forgives that person not only leaving him alone. She couldn't forgive herself things that brought her to death. He does it in behalf of her.
I think between the lines we can read he tries to live for tommorow, remember her as the best thing in his life but at the same time moving along.
He says before all this what did i miss? as in he didnt realize how she was feeling, and he doesnt understand what made her do this.
Remember that night among those same stars
We're in a red car you were sleep at my side
Going in & out of the headlights
Could I have saved you?
Would that have betrayed you?
Hes remembering the time they spent together, and wondering if she wanted to die, and if he had found a way to save her if she would have wanted to be saved.
I forgive you for blue blue skies... talks about how he now forgives her for taking her own life no matter how much it hurt him.
he believes that she is now an angel "hows your halo"
he can "never get used to" life without her
he reminises about a night they spent together where he "watched" her sleep "beside" him in a "red car" under the "same stars" that now separate them and he can't decide if he could have "saved her" or if expressing his concern about her would have been "betraying" her as she must have wanted to die if she committed suicide. but he cant understand how he never know "what did i miss" suggesting that he feels a sense of blame
he says that "he forgives" her for what she has done for better times "blue skies"
I love this song i think it's meaning is so deep
