October 16th

good song, havent heard much of their other stuff though

me and my best friend love this song to death.

I absolutely love this song and feel that this band gets very little credit for how amazing they sound. As far as the meaning is concerned, I have to say that I think it's about a guy who messed up his relationship, and now he's realizing that he wants the girl back, but it's too late. He still won't give up, even though he knows it's a lost cause.

I think it's about a girl and a guy who keep missing eachother when they like each other. Like she likes him, but he doesn't like her at the time, and now he likes her, and she doesn't want him. I think this is like the final straw where she won't give in anymore and she isn't going to like him again.

I just heard this song now! It's ironic that it's October 16th right now, too. Based from my own personal experience, this song reminds me a lot about how two people become so close at the same time liking each other a lot when they were younger, but as they continue to hide their feelings for one another, they eventually part ways and get on with their lives as they grow older... but the secret is still hidden, and the feeling is still there.

Its about how he finally opened up to this girl, but then she rejected him ("I let my guard down, but it seems not for the best"). He isn't quite sure why-did he say something wrong, or did he just wait too long?- but he's going to continue to pursue her, and is wishing for better luck and another chance.

I'm surprised that there's so few comments on this, is such a great song.

I have loved this song ever since it's initial release. It reflects my own life as well, in a somewhat creepy way. When I first heard this song I met this girl. She blew me away. She was everything I wanted, and everything I didn't even know I wanted. Unfortunately, we were both with other people at the time. For years we were on and off, due to either me not realizing she wouldn't wait around forever or her being with someone else. Whenever I was single she wasn't and vice versa. It all came to a head last year. Around September we started seeing each other. I wanted to take this slow but I must've "waited much too long". Come October, I was ready to tell her how much I loved her and wanted to be with her. This was the weekend of my birthday, October 9th. Unfortunately I did wait much too long. The day I was going to tell her, she told me she needed space. That meant, I found out, that she was back with her ex. The day I found out? October. 16th. The relationship came full circle, this song by my side the entire way. The boys over in Faulter write some good lyrics. Somehow, they seemed to have tapped into the future of what was going to happen in my life. I always felt a connection to this song. Little did I know, it was a premonition of things to come. For the one who got away.

You know I'll always love you.
