An excellent song, kind of reminds me of radio head. Bad Astronaut still has it, and this song can really prove it. Someone could say that this song deals with 9/11 "falling airplanes", but to me, it reflects on a more personal level. To me this song is more of a view personal into someone's life, as it comes crashing down. Everything is falling apart, "and now I crash with them", and he has to ride it out. "Stop Thinking, Stop Thinking, You Must Stop Thinking" refers to the mind tricks that you can play on yourself. Weither you interpret this song to be a 9/11 song or a more of an emotional song, it still has great depth and excellent musicianship.
That's how I've always interpreted the song, although I suspect it really is about 9/11 from a passenger's perspective. Joey's songs mean to me whatever I need them to mean - and since I'm very selfish I usually make the song about my own life.

To me this song is a letter from my conscience begging my impulsive side to stop with the self destruction.
