I THINK this song is definetly about drug use, singer of the band has admitted to tryign heroine...'your needle and your damage done,'....i think this song is about a heroine addict.
i think the song is about how drugs CHANGE a person, and the kid is the ghost of the mans old personality and refelects the innocence of that character, he now has a dual personality, and the 'kid' hates the other side of the man, and i think nethier do his friends who have tried to help, 'Though I don't like you anymore
You lying, trying waste of space'. i think though the narrator/voice of the sogn IS the innocent part of HIS personality as he says he knows exactly whats going on has been through it...it started of as himself being the user, but then a second half of the personaality developed which was the addict and user who NEEDED them, and this first half desperatley wnated to stop...and the two sides of the eprsonality are fighting each other. 'You are one of god's mistakes.
You crying, tragic waste of skin.
I'm well aware of how it aches.
And you still won't let me in.
Now I'm breaking down your door,
To try and save your swollen face. '
halfway through the video i noticed a bruise on the kids face: the user is hurting him...its damaging them both. and also i think its the same person from the use of 'our' when it talks about how its effectign them and its both their song to say goodbye, and how the first verse says the voice/narrator knows what is happenign from personal experience.
'A song to say goodbye,
A song to say,
Before our innocence was lost
You were always one of those blessed with lucky sevens,
And the voice that made me cry. '
Now I'm trying to wake you up,
To pull you from the liquid sky.
Cause if I don't we'll both end up with just your songs that say goodbye. .
