The past few years catch up to you suddenly and you take a moment to look at them You are upset by the fact that everyone around you has figured out something that they care about; because of your anger you try to tear them down You are so accustomed to hiding you dont know who you are in your sheltered life, when everything is right there and accessible for you, you wont know need You say you're something different and wanting to believe you're better than everyone else in order to make up for you're poor self-esteem; You like the sound of you're own voice and 1) now i have to choose, i miss the person you were but not who you are 2)now you have to choose, you miss the person i was but not who i am I think this song is about losing a part of yourself and not realizing it until you've lost someone who is important to you. At this point you realize that you have fit the stereotypical teen and you are poised with the choice of continuing along this path or finding out who you really are. |

I think that this song could be about child abuse but with rise against, just about any of their songs are open to interpretation. Here's a walk through of the song: "We are the children you reject and disregard These aching cries come from the bottom of our hearts You can’t disown us now, we are your own flesh and blood We don’t disappear just because your eyes are shut, now tell me " The children aren't loved as they should be and are poorly treated, their pain is deep Parent's cant disown their kids so easily since they are blood related so they turn to other measures Kids dont just disappear when you want them to "Love Loss Like a bullets path Tear Through The cavity of my chest Lights Out Because the fuse has blown" Love is gone because of the pain you've caused me You kill me inside This has happened because you couldn't control yourself (fuses will blow because they are overloaded) "As your castles crumble slowly We watch them fall The crown slips from heads unworthy As we take control" As you ruin this relationship and you're presence as a roll model; we watch You will not always be in power and you dont deserve it now; we take control "This is the family that we crossed or never had This is a war that was lost the day that it began Because it’s the race we run, but it keeps us at the start It’s the song I sung from the bottom of heart, that’s how we" The abused child looking at a friend's family realizing they never had one like that The child could never win because they couldn't ever fight back against their parents The child wants to get out, wants to leave, but is held back. I say this sincerely and genuinely "Read You Like a polygraph Not One Single bone in your back Own Up To how you let us down" We see how you really think of us We can't stand up to you/You are too cowardly to deal w/your emotions Deal w/how you hurt me Chorus is the same as the first "Except for you and me, love Everyone is the same, we know But if too live, we have to be numb I’d rather know the pain, I’d rather know This happens almost never But it happened once to me And this will never be same The ends we seam together" I love you because we're family and we're different than everyone else. I'd rather have this pain than not have a family This really never happens, but it happened to me This relationship will never be the same, we will meet when this ends. "I’m not after fame and fortune I’m after you When I’ve served my time I swear I will come for you" I'm not following a good example, I'm after you After this is over I will deal w/you. Chorus is the same |
