I'd love to know the actual story behind this song. so powerful.

I lost a close friend to suicide a few years back, & this entire song hits me hard. Not wanting to drag out the funeral (cause they wouldn't want you to), having nightmares, etc.

"You know the fucked up part is I kind of always knew we'd have to write a song about this You know the fucked up part is I had my fingers crossed that it wouldn't be for you, kid." Brings me to tears every time... my favorite thing about TWY is the ability to relate to the songs, but this is one I hope very few can relate to =[

it's about our friend mike pelone that died in august 2010. the song "we wont bury you" from the upsides re-release is also about his death.
