In the brightest hour of my darkest day
I realized what is wrong with me
Can't get over you
Can't get through to you
It's been a helter skelter romance from the start

Take these memories that are haunting me
Of a paper man cut into shreds by his own pair of scissors
He'll never forgive her
He'll never forgive her

Because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever
Because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever

Sitting by a fire on a lonely night
Hanging over from another good time
With another girl, little dirty girl
You should listen to this story of a life

You're my heroine in this moment I'm lonely
Fulfilling my darkest dreams
All these drugs, all these women
I'm never forgiven, this broken heart of mine

Because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever
Because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever

One last kiss, before I go
Dry your tears, it is time to let you go
One last kiss
One last kiss, before I go
Dry your tears, it is time to let you go

Because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever
Because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever

One last kiss, before I go
Dry your tears, it is time to let you go
One last kiss, before I go
Dry your tears, it is time to let you go
One last kiss

    General Comment:This song reminds me of my friend. It's a long complicated story, but he used to like me. We never had the chance. I had a baby with his best friend. Then we broke up. We finally had the chance to be together, but we can't now cause he says he could never do that to my son's dad. So we had an amazing night together and slept together. This song came on as I was leaving his house and totally reminded me of our situation. We will always have feeling for each other so that's the "my feeling for you are forever" part. And the one last kiss and it's time to let you go part applies cause we had our one time together, but we have to let go of what we had cause of my son's dad/his best friend.

    Anyways... not that you all care about my life!! But I love this song :) and it always reminds me of the good times me and him had together and makes me sad all at the same time!

    General Comment:if you watch the video on youtube, you will see that it is about his girlfriend who was killed in a car accident. I think she may have been leaving him when she got hit, because just before in the video she gets out her phone and calls someone and while his back is turned she walks into the road and gets hit.the song is basically about him trying to get over her with drugs, alcohol and hook ups, but nothing works. the second verse is about someone he hooked up with, not the girl he was in love with, because he says she is his "herione" meaning she has saved him monenterily from the way he was feeling and he is addicted. It wont be about the girl he was in love with because it says "fulfilling my darkest dreams" meaning he is doing something bad aka sleeping around with random girls. hope i helped :)

    General Comment:Why are there so many sniveling children lamenting and fussing over past relationships? Can you not offer any useful interpretations? That IS the point of this thread, is it not?

    My Interpretation:This song is about wanting for things to be right in a relationship although its obvious to the main character it can never be. He even fails to feel anything when he medicates himself with drugs or other women. Its obvious he doesn't want to be in a relationship with her because of some way she has wronged him, so he is letting her know that, I dont want this, but my hands are tied, what was done is unforgivable, tho I still love you, I will heal more by losing you than by keeping you after what youve done to me.

    General Comment:Everyone has their own take on songs, thats music. but to me this is about, like alot of people said, a guy trying to get over a girl. but the difference is that to me, it was one of those romances where the guy couldn't help himself, he was just so deeply in love with the girl. Part of him knew she wasn't good for him, but the heart feels what it wants, and he went after he. he took a lot of crap from her, but still loved her. finally something sent him over the edge and he couldn't forgive her. and even though he loves her the same, she hurt him too much. and he couldn't be with her after that, so he just wants one more kiss, and then he's gone.
    he's tried to forget her through broken relationships, random hookups and a hazy life, but he just cant forget her. and this song is his realization of what is wrong, he just couldn't let her go. maybe he will always love her, but I think that his realization of whats wrong is going to help him fix himself, "it is time to let you go". thats what i'd hope at least. otherwise this is a damn depressing song. just my thoughts

    General Comment:This song is about how a guy (or girl, could be neutral) suffer a break up, or hands down have their heart broken by the person they love.

    To get over that person they begin doing things they normally would not do just to mend their "broken heart". Having sex, drinking, doing drugs, etc. Even though they are doing all this kind of stuff to try to forget, they can't seem to let go thus it's killing them.

    Song Meaning:Personaly after watching the music video
    I believe that this song is about a man who lost his love
    and is trying so hard to move on.
    He still sees her and feels her with him. "days come and go but my feelings for you
    are forever" means that he wont ever let her go.
    "All these drugs all these women" means that he's trying to move on with different girls
    and the drugs must mean that he's trying to find a way to get rid of his
    sadness. But what happened to his girlfriend happens again in his mind (flashbacks)
    and he realizes shes gone, and she's not coming back. "One last kiss..before I go
    dry your tears .. it is time to let you go" Meaning one last kiss, I'm going to forget you
    dry your tears probualy means his tears , It's time to say goodbye
    I hope this made sence :)
