i read somewhere that adam said this song is about a girl imagining committing suicide, but in the end choosing to live. she's imagining everyone she knows gathering around and reading the note she wrote, but in the end she's "fast asleep next to me." and also, having a dream about him scraping his hands until they bleed? like maybe she's feeling this way because of him? but whatever this song means, it's absolutely beautiful and has gotten me through some hard times.
