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.
I had another dream today
I gotta let it out
The media has lost it's brain- what's this all about?
The action, the drama has got me on my seat's edge all the time
T-S-N's been on my screen since I read the news last night
If it's true, then can someone let me know?
I need proof, that this rumor's not a joke
Is it a myth, a legend, an old wives tale?
I guess we'll see it through
If The Flames when Lord Stanley, then we all win it too
I gotta let it out
The media has lost it's brain- what's this all about?
The action, the drama has got me on my seat's edge all the time
T-S-N's been on my screen since I read the news last night
If it's true, then can someone let me know?
I need proof, that this rumor's not a joke
Is it a myth, a legend, an old wives tale?
I guess we'll see it through
If The Flames when Lord Stanley, then we all win it too

I love this song- it's absolutly hilarious. It's about Jason Dunn's dream about the news saying the Calgary Flames won the Stanley Cup. The last line is related to the fact that Hawk nelson is Candian, and I'm guessing from Calgary.
