When I first saw the lyrics to this song while listening to it, I cried for about an hour. It always breaks my heart when an animal dies, because they're just so loving and honest. I know that my dogs, too, will die someday and it just pierces me deep inside.
The lyrics of this song are especially saddening because you can see the process of the dog's end. First there's something wrong with him and the singer doesn't know what to do, he tries everything, thinking the dog can "come down" from whatever the matter is, but then the dog suddenly takes a fall and plunges into an irreversible dilemma. The singer is left helpless and is forced to cope with his friend's unfortunate end. Every pet owner knows that someday this will happen, but it's still a shock when it does. Afterward, all that is left are memories, and all you can do is grieve.
I know, then you start remembering when you first got them as a little puppy, how afraid they were of their new home, they'd just lay there shivering and still. This song hurts deep.
