@[rhododendron:7825] I believe it's more about having a loved one pass away. Ryan himself wrote, "It’s very much a song about losing someone close and deeply loved, but it’s about the good they left behind in our lives and how to reflect that in your relationships in front of you." |

| City and Colour – The Grand Optimist Lyrics

My dad was diagnosed with cancer several weeks ago, and his demeanor completely blows my mind. Although he has always been fairly laid-back, I wasn't sure how I expected him to react to his diagnosis. It definitely wasn't the way he's been behaving: calm and positive the entire time. He doesn't make a big deal out of it and can talk about it quite casually. He hasn't complained about surgery or treatment one bit, and he truly has taken it in stride.
Because of the experiences she's been through, I consider my mom to be a much more cynical person, and I believe I'm the same way. We both struggle to see the silver linings in certain situations (such as this one).
I guess what I'm trying to say is that since my dad's diagnosis, I think of how relevant this song is and how my family can relate whenever I hear it (which is often). |

I can easily relate to this song. It reminds me so much of a situation I was in last year. My old boyfriend and I were together for nearly three years, but towards the end I think we both knew it was over and yet were trying to salvage something that just wasn't there anymore. I then found out after our break-up that he had kissed another girl but for the longest time he was a coward and refused to own up to it. Before I knew this, we were still hooking up after our break-up because I still had the lingering hope that we could rekindle our relationship and be perfect again. It took me awhile for me to accept that he was a liar and that our love was gone. In essence, this song is lovely in the most tragic way. |
