Lyric discussion by jdan2388 

this song to me is about how hopeless one feels when you can't control something and how sad this can be. It's a song about being human and how all the people you love will perish by events we simply can't control, and we must be able to cope with that and come to the realization that this is how it will be. the lyrics that really stick out to me are when he says:

"and there's nothing you can do about it now"

this is where the realization comes in and what makes him so sad but at the same time he realizes that this is what life is and we have to take it as it is. Also, when they start ahhing it almost feels to me like they're taking out all their sadness and frustration out, but when they start ooooing it feels like they're accepting it and instead choose to see the beauty and memories of those relationships instead of the negativity. Anyways that's what i get out of it when i hear this song. That's why it makes me cry, but i'm smiling throughout. It really is a great song.
