Even though these lyrics are not that creative or anything, and though it does sound somewhat trite, i love this song. My first love(my ex) moved 7 hours away to go to college, and I couldn't handle it. I experienced the feelings in this song then, and im going through it right now,5 months after the breakup. Its not that im a stalker or crazy or anything. But when he moved away i couldn't breathe, literally, i started getting anxiety and it took over my life. i turned into a completely different person, thats why i think my favorite line of this entire song is"its like im not me". I'm not the same person even now, better, yes, but not the same. I'd always try to explain the way I felt everyday to EVERYONE, and well this song pretty much sums it up for me. Occasionally I have nightmares where we got back together, those are the worst. Everyday I wake up and my subconscious is constantly thinking about him. No matter how much I tell myself its DONE, MOVE ON! "and i know these voices in my head are mine alone." You can hear the anger in her voice too, and i'm at that same state of mind. Just so much ANGER towards the addiction, in this case an ex. Even though its not really an "addiction" it is. It makes you angry because no matter how much you know its wrong, and stupid, you continue doing it, and you really can't help it. So simple but sooo much meaning, for me anyway. ;(
