this song is rather personal for me, because my boyfriend/fiance could very easily be the "he" in this song. i've come out of really bad depression over the last few years and i still struggle with what i look like. at one point i didn't recognise myself in the mirror at all and hated my reflection for being what it was - and hated my perception of myself even more, which is like "seeing red". seeing red makes you blind to what's really there, and believing the lies about yourself is all too easy.
the way this song is expressed is just beautiful - blindside is good at making songs that fit me perfectly where i am at the point in time i discover the cd, and they've done it again.
bravo Christian.
