This song seems a little more vague than most Jimmy Eat World songs, and thats saying something. To me it just seems about forgetting whats happened in the past and coming to terms with it. He talks about smoothing the sheets so no one knows, and turning back the clock. He seems angry about what happened but is ready to just forget the whole thing and move on. So much anger and desperation in Jim's voice when he sings this its amazing. Great song to open one of the best albums of all time. And does anyone know if thats Tom screaming in the back or what, cause it sounds perfect for the song.
