Every band has one song that everybody loves. :)

This song means a lot to me personally. My best friend, Lindsey, if I'd never met her I'd be nothing. She moved away six years ago after knowing each other for three years. Three months ago I found her on Facebook. Before that I was extremely depressed, thinking about just ending it (it wasn't caused by missing her, just really depressed). She brought up my life again, and now I'm feeling great.

I found out that she lives in Georgia now, about forty miles from Atlanta :)
