Cover art for Echo lyrics by Vertical Horizon

to me this song means to not be a copy... when you scream in a cave or even in a bathroom or something, you hear an echo which is pretty much a copy of your original scream. i'm thinking the song means to not be the echo, even though we all feel like it sometimes, because the scream before us seemed so much better we'd rather try to be a copy of it then create our own scream. don't be a copy/echo. be original
