yeah - switchfoot is my favorite band ever too. They're unbeatable...their lyrics, their music, their passion.

uh...here's what I read that Jon (songwriter) wrote about it:

"'Don't be There' was inspired by a bittersweet period in my life when I was growing further apart from a dear friend of mine. I will always teasure our friendship; I will never forget the beautiful memories. Yet, youth can be synonymous with change as we begin to learn and discover and experience life more and more. My friend and I had changed since we met, and our distance hurt both of us. The song is built around the conflicting desires that I had concerning this friendship."
