Lyric discussion by drego5 

This song, when I get into it and actually listen, just about drives me to tears. It seems to capture the essence of life in general, the fact that you can't turn back, all you can do is find some way to comfort yourself, and try your best to move on ahead. There's no turning back that "hourglass"

Everyone seems to like the Bridge the best, with the tunnel.. but personally, I much prefer the entire last verse, particularly the two lines "these words are my diary screamin' out aloud / And I know that you'll use them however you want to." She's making a commentary, on the fact that we (as listeners) will be making a commentary on her commentary. :-D

This song (for now, anyway) is my "plastic bag in the wind". ;-)
