First, it's "...I guess I'd do the same" and "Feeling good it used to come so damn easy."

Beyond that it's a pretty poignant song about suicide's aftermath, one of a couple on this album. I really love the rich imagery of walking down a street one used to know only to find it dark and foreign. And the line about not being worthy of being a Daddy really hits home.

Still, the biggest thing for me is the way the song ends, with quiet and the click of those snare taps and the song's title running through it all.
