this is my favorite song off the whole cd. im still struggling with the meaning entirely. i think the first verse is saying he used to be sumeone who thought he cud take anything, he tried to take everything that was dealt to him by his friends or gal and even when he cudnt take it, he pretended and it lead to him getting kinda screwed over in sum way and thats when he decided it was time to let go of that person, not give up on them but just decide to go his own way. the second verse i think might be like it got to the point where it was kinda the same thing everyday and he was getting sick of it. the part where it goes the wind died, the whole world cease to move etc... is still confusing to me i dont understand the meaning, but i love it...may not be the greatest interpretation

The part about the wind dying and the whole world ceased to move is talking about the moment of truth. I interpret this song as a guy who has to break up with a girl and she's not expecting it. So he sees her, and it's like everything in the world stands still. It's nothing but him and her, his stomach is in knots, he's nervous, but he knows he has to do it. The wind died, all hope has been lost or abandoned; the whole world ceased to move, it's like time stood still, and there was nothing but...

i like that he says i dont know why i just know is like him saying i dont know why its not working its just not........off topic is your username based from something from zelda
