this is one of my favorite songs off the new cd. love the way slug sings the chorus. it's about him growing up from a child to present and his past relationships that obviously failed.
It's an amazing song with amazing similarities to people I've known. And if it's read carefully and truly seen for what it is, it's a song about perception.
