How can there be only one comment here?I completely agree that this is the second best song, after the title track, in "This Strange Engine".
The lyrics are pretty much self-explanatory.It's a song about loss, about those who leave us,those who stay behind,those who try to cope with everyone we lose over the years.Sometimes we do, sometimes we don't.("you never get over it, you get used to it" as H. so eloquently put in "Brave"'s "Living with the Big Lie".)Actually for me, the song, works both ways.On a good day, i agree we get over our losses, and then again, on a bad day i " would give anything, Give up everything,Offer (my) life blood away,For yesterday"
Even though my yesterday is 18 years back...
