Silversun Pickups – Kissing Families Lyrics 10 years ago
I think this song is about just how much someone in your life who is a fucked up person can affect you. For example, in the music video, the bassist has the cords wrapped around her ankles and she is knocking everything down in her path. Drug addiction, depression, whatever it is: when someone in your life is messed up, they end up messing you up, and everyone who loves them as well (it's everything that is connected and beautiful). The writer clearly loves that person and can't leave them or get them out of their life ("this can be the bitter end, i know it wont").
"spent too much time now on paths sideways"- they aren't going anywhere, nothing is changing.
"move on, roll along" don't drag me down with you
"thank god it's over" he/she managed to get them out of their lives

idk, just want I think about it! Reminds me of one of my best friends who was addicted to drugs. Not only did he ruin his own life but he dragged a lot of people down with him (including myself). When people are fucked up, they affect everyone who loves them too.
