Cover art for Boy lyrics by Hawthorne Heights

This is one of the best and emotionally powerful songs on Skeletons; I'm surprised to be the first to comment.

This one seems kinda clear. I think it's about his stressed relationship with his parents and how detached he was from his mother because she was always absorbed in her own self-pity. Overall he's singing about his family problems from his childhood.
