This song always makes me think of how third parties must've seen when my brother and cousin died. They were in the same car, and both were extremely drunk. The phrase "two more dead" sounds so impersonal, objective, and harsh... A phrase that ignores the fact those who have gone before us were people too. People who lead their own lives, loved, were loved, smiled, laughed... The lines "Run away" and "I'm down on my knees" in the song also makes me think of how I felt when I first heard the news.
