because I'm dying on my own out here
but it doesn't even matter
because I don't wanna die alone ou here
but it doesn't even matter
you see I'm nothing but a broken man
but it doesn't even matter
anymore!

Why do we
all fall apart?
I guess it doesn't even matter
How did we
fall down so far?
I guess it doesn't even matter

because you're dying on your own out here
but it doesn't even matter
because you don't wanna die alone out here
but it doesn't even matter
you see you're nothing but a lonely man
that doesn't even care
anymore!

Why do we
all fall apart?
I guess it doesn't even matter
How did we
fall down so far?
I guess it doesn't even matter
Anymore!

Take me
somewhere peaceful
i can
live in peace

Take me
somewhere peaceful
i can
live in peace

Take me
somewhere peaceful
i can
live in peace

Take me
somewhere peaceful
i can
live in peace

Why do we
all fall apart?
I guess it doesn't even matter
How did we
fall down so far?
I guess it doesn't even matter

Why do we fall apart? ('cause it doesn't even matter)
Why do we fall apart? ('cause it doesn't even matter, yeah)
Why do we fall apart? ('cause it doesn't even matter)
Why do we? Why do we? ('cause it doesn't even matter, 'cause it doesn't even matter, 'cause it doesn't even matter)
'cause it doesn't even matter anymore

Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

He certainly did earn that reputation.

In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
