this song makes me think of growing up.
the whole time you're growing up you think you know, you think you've got yourself figured out, you spend all your time "getting by trying to figure out your lives" and all that time you're under the pressure of looking cool or making things significant, trying to be deep, trying to make everything meaningful, but when it comes right down to it- it's just for show, it's just for self, but there's no way you could've known that at the time.
the lyrics make me think of a young couple, thinking they were perfect for each other, and now he's wondering, now that they're getting older, and fading out, if there's any merit left in that at all- "i thought you were the sweetest kill, did we even know?" i thought i knew you were the best, but did i really know anything at all?
i dunno, that's just what it makes me think of.
i agree with that. i took it as he finds a girl that he thinks is the best girl to have and that shes the prize. then he realizes that she has a lot of people against her, and hes willing to help her get through things because he really does end up loving her. then he finds out he had no idea who she was on the inside, and he could never know that just by the way people portray her.
