This song has got to be one of my favorites of all time. It's so down, but so meaningful. I agree, the title completely describes the song. It's the feeling, when you say goodbye to someone for the last time, or for a long time, all feelings you had of hope are gone, and how do you cope with stuff like that?

There is a wound that's always bleeding

  • It always hurts, and there's nothing to be done about it, it can't be fixed. There is a road I'm always walking
  • It's always the same, the same path, the same thing, the same pain, always there. And I know you'll never return to this place
  • Do you need an explanation? Someone's gone, won't be coming back.. Hope Leaves.
