Cover art for Three Years Ago Today lyrics by Built to Spill

I love the "watched my cat die for a month now I have seen a sheepish woner" line. I think he had to watch his pet cat get sick and die and that doesnt mkae him too happy. Knowing that Doug likes cats makes me respect him even more. cats kick ass.

the song is about him losing a pet cat three years today. the first part of the song is about him waking up dreaming about that day and how horrible it was. the line no one's gonna push my buttons no one's gonna have their say makes me think that his friends and family said that he should put his cat down. the second part is him realizing that it didn't seem quite as awful as it seemed. the last part where he says "feel about the same but I'm 10 years older" since the event happened three years ago he can't be 10 years older...
