this song is simple yet so powerful. the long instrumental prelude to the lyrics is perfect. as savemefromtears said, this song means something different to everyone. however, i feel the overall message of this song is that we all need to learn to show a little more compassion for others and stop being so concerned with our inner turmoil -"don't leave home again if empathy takes energy cause everyone feels just like you". life is "so social" and if we can't get past our own pain we'll never have any empathy for those who surround us.
