i was always puzzled on this song. i kept trying to over analyze it and what not, because a lot of their songs on the newest releases are very very deep and well thought out. basically though,the lyrics explain it all. its about feeling like the world and all its pressures/burdens are caving in on you, and you don't know what to do. you lose focus and you feel like giving up. its like every day is a struggle. the pressures of life lead you to lose sight of your goals, and you tend to head in the wrong direction. the song is about him trying to keep control of his life, but he just can't seem to. and then in the next song,homecoming, he finally sets himself free from all these burdens and sets his life on track.
