This is my favourite song on Truthless Heroes. The music is great but the lyrics are even better. It sums up the whole album. All through the album you have the "truthless hero" as he/she travels through life trying all these different things to try and fill the void in his/her life. And then right at the beginning the song says, "all that i've tried so hard to keep is all i've had to leave." Basically you can't rely on material objects to get you through life. When it says, "And all along here i was told that i could find...that i could find a hope inside this empty place" but really material objects don't help. You need Christ in your life to get you through things and to provide you with safety. Thats what it means to me anyways.
