This song reminds me of drugs. I do drugs and it feels a lot like the change that they do to yew. Perhaps it's driven them to suicide by the looks of it. "This may be my last one. It’s gonna be good and hard. It might be a touch out of key. (a touch out of key)" -Basically this'll be the last time i do it and i'm gonna make it count. Good and hard hitting. As for the touch out of key thing, i link it to him being too emotionally wrecked for it to work like every other time he's done drugs. "When this thing breaks. I will be you You will be me. " -Judging by the split vocals i'd say this is referring to what drugs do to yew. They split yew, i still have thoughts (especially provoked by this song) Where i feel like my old self pitches in my thoughts sometimes. Basically i think it's saying "when this addiction breaks, i will be yew (the old self) and yew will be me (again referring to his old self). God, where have I been. I’m terrible company. With zero apologies. My God where have I been? Where have I been? - Where has my old self been? I think that's what it's trying to say. As for terrible company with zero apologies. People who do drugs are generally nice. People who abuse too many quantities of drugs can often be twats. They're terrible company and they never apologise. Simple as that. I’m worn out. I’m worn thin. I will never break through. I'm worn out (Where have I been) I'm worn thin (Where have I been) I will never break through. (Where have I been) Let me out. Let me out. Let me out. -He can't break the addiction, so he gets rid of his life. That's what this song means to me, if anyone can find a more accurate prediction fair enough. But that's what the song means to me, i don't care what message underoath tried to portray. This is my meaning and i know it well. It makes sense. Would like to hear some other views though =] |

| I don't know if anyone realises this, but there's a slight change of tone in the chorus, "i'll be just find, pretending i'm not". If yew listen carefully enough yew can hear him saying something along the lines of "i'll be just fine, pretending... i'm not!". It's kinda hard to explain, it sounds more like he's denying that he's pretending. | |
