This song means alot to me because when i discovered it it vocalised alot of the things i was feeling at the time.
'Let it be known for what we beleive in..."
Being a christian when all your friends aren't, they don't understand you etc...
"This life is a farce..."
As Niam said, she is pretending to be something she is not. I was putting on a front to everyone that I was ok, a mask of happiness, shutting all emotion away. Those feelings eventually suffocate you, and eat away at you leaving you feeling awful.
At the time also, I could see other close friends doing the same, and just wanted to say to them let it out, but you cant because they wouldn't listen... hence the "so breathe on little sister, like a fool". Little sister, patronising, yet endearing and loving. Sisterly feeling of protection.
