It kicks in like an ugly sound and I'm split divides me.
Skull collides.
Such a long way down.
Such a big big bad.
Such a bright white light.
Rubber crutch lands so hard.
I got to know the way, today
'Cause you fly with me again, away
I got to know the way, today
'Cause you fly with me again, away
This memory of you holds more than a photograph.
It's much more than a book of old pictures locked away without a name.
Some sit down.
Let the rest decide.
Over what divided you.
Besides, it's a long time now.
Yea, so far away.
No one cares too much over what happened to you.
I got to know the way, today
'Cause you fly with me again, away
I got to know the way, today
'Cause you fly with me again, away
(I got to know the way, today)
('Cause you fly with me again, away)

I wonder if this is about losing his love in a car accident . Skulls collide and the bright white light. Head on collision. Rubber crutch is crutches when you break your leg, and he survived the crutch, but it’s also symbolic of her being his crutch, as alluded by past comment.
What does it for me is the next part. She’s gone and he only has her memories, which he cherishes dearly. He believes and prays for the day they will be together again, no matter what divides them, heaven and earth.
Listened to this a lot 25 years ago when I my gf broke up with me and this was a song our group always liked, and loved this band. Then when my dad died this last Christmas I found the song again and gave it new meaning, as the memories and pictures were all I had.
@Poisonthewell9 i’m so sorry i hope everything’s better now, much love 💝

this song is by far my fav pinback song.... i think its about him losing a girl and he is finally realizing how much he misses her like a "bright light" it flashes infront of him and he remembers the memories and theyre so important now because he cant have her anymore or be able to create more memories so he's left to linger on the old ones and he doesnt understand why the relationship ever ended... thats my guess. its a great song either way
I love this song, it is tied as my favorite song along with Tripoli and Chaos Engine
i think that she was his crutch. holding him up. yeah.
Rubber crutch? Obviously a condom
j/k
The first time i heard this song i couldn't dtop listening to it for about 3 weeks. I love it.
i agree with the first entry. theres a gap and she isnt there to fill it. but i dont know if he wants her back, because shes just not right.
this song is perfect, regardless.
what or who is Dahlia?
you can sure here the sorrow in this song.
WOW, *hear. : )
