Everything Everything – Weights Lyrics 13 years ago
I'm bummed there aren't more comments on this song! I think these guys are way underrated, in the states anyways :)

Music means so much to me and I hold such a high/unique appreciation for so many different genres/bands/songs/etc, and I feel like this song hits really close to this period of my life right now. I think the beautiful part of music is that it can mean anything to anybody, as long as it makes you feel something. So this it what it means to me;

I feel like he's trying to say it's time to let go of all the burdens you let fall upon yourself and pick yourself up. The "blind by daybreak..." part might mean he's ready to wake up and needs the light to help get him on his feet because his burdens seem much heavier (doubled) than before. "Time to live alone..." might represent emotionally removing yourself from complications and taking time to figure out who you are and get in touch with your passions and embrace life without past emotions/etc getting in the way.
In the bridge before the last part of the song where he's saying "Friend, don't break the code, A tiny part, a tiny part remains" to me I feel like he's saying that things are going to happen no matter what, but to stay strong through everything and don't let things become a burden that don't need to be.
The end is what really gets me too, when he's singing "I know how it starts and I know how it ends..." I feel like he's seen this before/knows what happens when people let things get the best of them and don't allow themselves to live their lives, and it's time to start living for yourself

Again, this is just what I've gotten from it, and every single time I listen to it, I still get shivers! And my interpretation of this might even change the next few times, but that's the great part about music :]
