Takkuun, I was expecting such reaction. Why telling the evidence would be related to my open mindness? I never said every song since Deja is about Sherri, you did. I just said this one is clearly about her: it relates her recent story perfectly. You're the one who need to stay open minded and not reject this theory only because it involves Sherri. Jesse is a great lyricist, but I hate the way people are always looking for a super deep meaning when the lyrics are so clear. |

I think the meaning of this song is quite obvious: Jesse Lacey wrote it about his ex Sherri Dupree from Eisley. I know it's been a long time but well.. There are just too many evident allusions.. The short story for those who never heard of that is that right after their break-up, Sherri started dating Chad Gilbert from New Found Glory. The two got married (he bought a bride) and bought a house together (now she's got a brick house). After less than a year, Chad dumped Sherri. It just fits the song perfectly. The lyrics also mention a little city in Texas, while Sherri lives in Tyler, TX. Jesse talks about the importance of the family, Eisley is a familial band. He emphasizes the "there's no children in it" because Sherri is from a 6-child family and probably wants some too.. And the beginning with the trees might be an allusion to some Eisley songs like "Tree tops", "Lady of Wood", and "Brightly Wound" because they all talk about forest. |
