This is my absolute favorite song by (the)Wallflowers. It's perfect, in every sense.
My favorite lines are:
'I'm not drunk and I'm not sad
There's nothing inside that I want back.'
and
'Under crushing skies of grays
Paralyzed with phantom pains
Before this room became just a place
Where I just sleep through endless days
Spinning webs and carving names
Where thoughts break up, exploding in space
But I once crossed a quarter mile
Through black pools of razor wire
And cut through steel
With the edge of a file
While singing rhaphsodies in stride
Hellbent and dignified
Now my time has come
Who you fooling and why?'
I think that it might be about being strong and developing a more positive outlook on life.
Whatever it's about, I effin' love it... to death.
