Tearing Up the Oxygen Lyrics
I think it's about a person leaving for a little while, he/she is wondering if the other person will remember the times they shared.
Now that person is in a new place(s) and wishes he/she was braver. They miss home.
I never overanalyze songs. I figured since no one else has commented. I should. I LOVE this song!
the maritime's best song for me!

It's 'recklessly' not 'relentlessly,' but yeah, I believe that this song is about the 'journey' or whatever you want to call it of trying to show someone you love them and how it feels.
From what I can tell of this song, and the majority of the lyrics by this band of others of its ilk, is that they are largely based on personal experience and should be viewed as such. Reading deep meanings, and or specific intrepretations of the lyrics is mostly folly... in my humble opinion.
If reading into the lyrics is "folly" why would you bother to post and why are you even registered on this website? Just because the artist wrote a song from personal experience doesn't mean that others won't find meaning in it.

We can still speculate. I think it's about an argument that causes two people to separate for awhile and pursue their lives in different places. Seems like both have reconciled and want to be back together again.
i remember the first time i heard this on the radio in 2004, it's what introduced me to the whole midwest indie scene. best moment in my life.
