I love this song. First poster is right.. it's obvious what the song is trying to say. It holds a similar meaning for me. After being diagnosed with a life altering disease in my early 20's - I changed and started looking at life differently. Suddenly the people I surrounded myself with.. they just didn't make sense to me anymore and I didn't make sense to them. The ideals I held close growing up weren't as important. I opened my mind and found that life has a lot of gray areas. And that's okay. I found new meaning in life... this song is awesome. That's just what it means to me. All music is subjective! Brittney, the lead singer, reminds me of Janis. She's not scared to get all ugly in the face with it - it's awesome... The notes that she sings don't even have to be perfect because you're not listening to that.. you're listening to the feeling behind them.
