"I Heard It's the Softest Thing Ever" as written by Jeremy Wade Mckinnon, Joshua Steven Woodard, Neil S Westfall, Thomas H Denney Jr. and Alexander Thomas Shelnutt....
Tonight I'm sending a message
This is the end of an era
The end of second chances
In the face of defeat
I'm winning
Yet, you still have so much left to say
They're coming straight for me
Just let me go for now
I'll be just fine
Don't you know now that I'm back on my own
Tell me how it feels to watch the walls of your security crumble
I remember you, you took the easy way out when I gave you something to stand for
They're coming straight for me
Just let me go for now
I'll be just fine
Don't you know now that I'm back on my own
I was just another promise that you couldn't keep
This is the end of an era
The end of second chances
In the face of defeat
I'm winning
Yet, you still have so much left to say
They're coming straight for me
Just let me go for now
I'll be just fine
Don't you know now that I'm back on my own
Tell me how it feels to watch the walls of your security crumble
I remember you, you took the easy way out when I gave you something to stand for
They're coming straight for me
Just let me go for now
I'll be just fine
Don't you know now that I'm back on my own
I was just another promise that you couldn't keep

and what annoys me is on a lot of songs people just say "OH YEAH I REALLY LOVE THIS SONG!" and I'm like who the fuck cares I would like to hear what you got out of the song... seeing as how the site's name is songmeanings... -__-
possibly my favourite from the album.
There's some lyrics missing..
"Read between the lines
We can't give in this time"
ive seen thumbsucker, good movie.
I don't even really know how to explain what it means to me..
I went through a really bad breakup, and this is how I felt.
I felt..hurt, but stronger? because of it.
I was in a relationship for nine months and my girlfriend
dumped me. I really didn't want to let her go I felt like she was the
one an she would always play stupid little head games saying
she wanted me back when she really just wanted someone to care about her.
I finally got over her and that's what I feel like the first verse is about,
"the end of an era" "the end of second chances". I felt defeated for a long time
but once I was able to get her out of my mind I felt like I had finally won.
Tonight I'm sending a message
This is the end of an era
the end of second chances
In the face of defeat
I'm winning
Yet, you still have so much left to say
A few months later she realized that I was truely the one for her and
she tried getting back with me and I told her that I was better off on my own,
thus the chrous.
Just let me go for now
I'll be just fine
Don't ya know now that I'm back on my own
I feel like the second verse is about her realizing that I was finally done
and that I was no longer her "security".
Tell me how it feels to watch the walls of your security crumble
I remember you, you took the easy way out when I gave you something to stand for
This last part to me was basically about her breaking all our plans for the future,
having kids, getting married, etc.
I was just another promise that you couldn't keep
Anyways that's just what the song means to me...
P.s - Fucking amazing!!!!
