Running With Scissors

To me, this song is about a drug-abusive brother, and if not a literal brother, than definitely a figurative one. The first line indicates a sense of drug abuse "Sticking needles in your arms." Now he's trying to help his brother, for his addiction to drugs has made him fall to the ground, at a low point in his life, and is holding out his hand to help, for it pains him to see his brother like this. "You've hit the ground so hard It's breaking me, breaking me down...You've hit the ground so hard So take my hand." The end. lol

Yeah, agreed. This song gives me goosebumbs.

I got a really good friend who says they're trying to get their life together but they keep drinkin and doing drugs and I'm just trying to help them out Great song

I think its about two brothers, the oldest used to take care of his younger brother. As they grew older they began to hate each other. The oldest brother pressured by his friends(These so-called "friends" They care, pushing your end) into doing Haroin. (Brother, what have you done? Sticking neddles in your arms)Eventually, the younger couldn't bear seeing him so screwed up, so the young brother makes a promise to look out for the oldest brother like the oldest brother did when they were younger. (I hate my love for you But you cared for me so I'll care for you) But the oldest ran away from home, and this song is a plea to bring him back home. (brother, oh will you come home?)

i think this song is definatly about a drug abusive brother. I kind of feel like this song was written for me because my older brother and I used to be best friends and then he made some bad friends who talked him into doing drugs and now we dont really talk anymore or see eachother anymore.

This Song. So Good It Hurts. And I Can Relate, my Literal Brother Is Using Pills. :/
