Into the Void

One of the best songs in the film "Final Destination" relatively unheard of in the UK, i was glad to hear a bit of meaning in a film and song. Sounds like Trenbt is contemplating a step in his life, the station being his method of travel to his final destination, however everything else he's done has fucked up or gone wrong and as this experience wears on it appears to turn out just like all the others as he slips away.

Well led on in "things falling apart" in "slipping away"

It is SOO fscking cool to watch trevor be a JACKASS when you're sober...

i agree with sean almost completely. he wanted to be good, amount to something, but everything kept pulling him down, a letting him slip.

and he is contemplating his mortality, and reflecting on his life and decisions.

and wondering what will happen when he dies. where he will end up.

I personally think that the song's about suicide. The journey that he's taking being death, and "Pictures in my head of the final destination" is wondering what comes afterwards. "All lined up (All the one's that aren't allowed to stay)" Are others who aren't allowed to stay on earth and have to take the trip into death with him. "Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away" is obvious-he tried to stop this and save who he was, but he can't. The rest of the song reiterates how he tried to overcome his problems and he failed, thus the suicide.

Not necessarily correct, but it rings true with me.

I think its about him going crazy and going to the deep dark world of crazyness. great song.

i agree with overfire.. i always saw "trying to save myself but my self keeps slipping away" as trying to save myself from depression/suicide but i keep slipping away before i can

TRevor is and idot, anyway The thing thats great about this band like is everyone can sit and debate over what the songs mean but Trent like ist very big on talking about what they mean so no one ever really Knows for sure, and with music being such a universal thing everyone can take it as they will but its a Great band and a GREAt song

what i think is...in the "timeline," of the story, this is after the death that I think comes at the end of disc 1 in "the great below"...

so this could maybe be a place in the afterlife - maybe limbo, or waiting to see where he'll go. if anyone else has read dante's "inferno", the parallels are very strong - the part about "all lined up all the ones that aren't allowed to stay", about the sun not shining (it doesn't in dante's hell), and about not knowing where you'll fall in that scheme of things.

Metaphorically speaking, I think "the station" would be suicide or death in general, and the "final destination" would be hell, or the afterlife.

The character in the song is torn between ending it all and holding on.

Good song.
