oh my god, my girlfriend had this on her itunes for years and i never found myself liking it until last night
so i whacked it on my ipod, thought "yeah why not it'd be nice to sleep to" but never actually heard any lyrics cus it was always played through the twangy speakers of a laptop. So i was listening to it this morning on the train, paying close
attention to the words thinking ah how nice then i heard "climbing to the top I will throw myself off"
I's like wha-wha-WHAAT?!
Then I scrolled back to the begining and listened from the start, but when he speaks of his father and trying
to encourage his mother to hold together I feel my bottom lip shake, my eyes get itchy and watery,
I cant take my breath back in, and i know if i sniff it'll be obvious to someones that im listening to something that just rips you right apart. Some songs just really kick you about.
Your comment made me smile and laugh a bit. Isn't it great when you like a song's melody then finally listen to the lyrics and they give the song even deeper meaning? Karaoke has introduced many people to lyrics of songs they never really knew.

I remember this when I was four years old and I understood it was sad, but still liked it. I could never imagine losing my parents and now I have, prematurely. And "I cried and cried all day". Still hard to accept.

Im sorry to hear that mate. I've forced myself to accept my parents' inevitable and eventual passings and it still hurts before its happened.
