Cover art for Long Day lyrics by Matchbox Twenty

For me this song means that you can't escape from yourself. The line "It's me, and I can't get my self to go away/ Oh God I shouldn't feel this way" is him saying that all he wants is to not be himself, if only just for a while. "Reach, she said for no one else but you" is saying that you can only count on yourself. And even though he wants her to reach into her pocket and pull out hope he knows that he has to deal with the situation on his own and rely on himself.

That's all I got.
