Matisyn is a tremendous song writer and I love how he makes every song very subjective. While believing it is how each song relates to each person that gives it it's meaning, I feel this song is everything there is to the falling apart/breaking up/fallout of a relationship. So many hints and lines that talk about love, lost love, etc., seems as though this song (even though songs can almost be called poems) is the most sincere and unique poem-type song ever. This song to me is the means of a relationship to which they fall in love, he falls harder, then she ends up leaving him for w/e she feels is of more worth. Hence, "You are the saddest sight i know" - he did everything right, he gave her everything, and she still sees it fit to find something "better". And throughout the song he describes how he still cares so much and he still hears her even though she's absent, and I think that shows a mental battle if you will, to get over something that deems you unworthy. And in a personal way, i'd agree that he told her that he always knew she'd do this to him, always knew she'd reach for something higher, possibly because of beauty or in light to what she can accomplish or simply foolishness. And to me the end is so disgusting, because (again, from subjective personal means) there can be a million goodbyes to anything that you leave/is left behind, but only one actually takes on the full meaning. Relationships, family, work, problems, past, etc., that's what makes it subjective. But i think he illustrates how that one goodbye that is (meaningful) is when the person honestly thinks, believes, and agrees that the truth is It's Gone.. no matter what from that point forward, it's a realization of facing the truth that w/e it may be is no longer existant. Amazing song, rock on EB
