Lyric discussion by Ckutz 

heard this song on the radio today and as someone else said "it crept into the crevices of old wounds" and froze me. in reading some comments i'm suprised how many people didn't really get it. but as someone else said you'd have to have gone through the same and you'd know exactly what he's talking about.

That's exactly as i felt. everything he talks about is something i've felt, and continue to feel. it really struck me to hear someone else singing about EXACTLY what i feel.

i think i'll just say what i, and i'm sure many others, have gone through, and you'll see the parallels. i dated a girl for 2 years, then she broke it off. if i see her or pictures, i have that moment just like he describes "and that white dress she's wearing", with quickly being struck by their beauty, and how much you loved how beautiful they were, it's something you try to forget ("you haven't seen her for awhile") but just strikes you when you do. and then the jealousy of how happy she is, or carefree, something, while you're still hurting. similar to the 3rd stanza, where he's watching her.

sometimes she'll call, completely randomly. and i get struck just like he is when she comes to talk to him, all the memories, passion, flash through my head, it immediately changes my mood as his does. i get all nervous and can't talk right ("And you feel hopeless, and homeless, And lost in the haze Of the wine"). she'll tell me about her boyfriend or something with how great things are, and it gives the same blood boiling feeling. As the girl makes sure he notices her and sees her leave and he feels that anger, that's how it feels when she'll call. like she just does it to remind me of her, stir up the memories, make sure it still hurts. the whole situation leaves me feeling lost and heartbroken just as he does walking under the street lights. the next feeling is wanting to see her again, be with her again, hoping there could still be a chance..but deep down "you know that she'll break you in two".

i don't really think she's this evil..it's just what goes through a persons mind. sorry for getting so personal, just really struck me how similar it was. just wanted to get it off my chest i guess.

just watched the video, really like that at 3:48ish you see in the notebook he has written "i know it was my fault" because that's the only thing that was missing in the parallels. we both screwed it up, and now we know it.
