This song is pretty ambiguous. The obvious interpretation is about a relationship, but I'd like to think there's more to it than that. When they were asking for ideas for the music video, I was hoping something would come out with an epic mass of people holding up signs saying things like, "My mom passed away of breast cancer three years ago," and the person beside that would then hold theirs up saying, "I'm a recovering alcoholic," and on and on. Meanwhile, the boys could be acting out a relationship scene, with a girlfriend in the hospital, and the boyfriend being (clearly) right by her side the whole time. The line would lead to the girl in the hospital, and she'd hold up a sign saying something like, "I'm in here because of an attempted suicide." After the climax of the song, the people could flip their signs to show a more positive side, like, "And now, I walk for the cure, and have helped raise millions of dollars for cancer research," and, "I've been sober for seven months!" Lastly, the girl could flip her sign and say, "I'm so happy to be alive." or something.
If the video had been something like that, I think it would've been way more meaningful and interesting. It brings in the concept of never being alone, which I like.
But whatever, they went and did a relationship video with Josh being the main guy... sigh.

wow. I really like your idea :)

Well thank you. :) It would've trumped the cookie-cutter "I LOVES YOU!" idea they ended up with. The video could've been so much better.
