This is my "packing" anthem ... when I'm about to take my leave from a place I've grown close to (ie. university dorm), this song seems to find a niche with me. The meaning itself is not difficult to comprehend ... a roomate/significant other has left, and he's taking stock of the physical/emotional void thats left, he's "just to frightened by the sound of it"... 'it' being the lack of the life and presence of the person who was once there. The second verse is him making those pseudo-plans we all do when we're about to leave ("we'll get together sometime for sure) and want to emtionally detach from the fact that we'll never see someone again. In the end, all that can be said is that it was "good"... which definitely has fesitious overtones considering how much of your life and yourself you share with those who you live with. In essence, a tribute to roomates and others you share your life with. One of my favorite songs, the chorus is too damn catchy!!!
@Judo_yehh I'm so glad someone was able to put this kind of a thing into words! I as well have a packing anthem except mine is "Hanginaround" by the Counting Crows. I can see how this song would do much of the same for somebody
