I feel like this song is exactly what I am going through, and I cry everytime I hear it. My family has been going through a lot of problems, and I realize that there is a lot of tension and even if things do get better I am afraid to say we won't have that close relationship we always had. I never realized what I had until I lost it, and that means so much more to me than ever. I never really understood that one day everyone feels like that. Everyone is saying this song is about death, but I think it could be interpreted about being about 'losing' someone in a completely different way. I don't know, but that's how I look at it.
