Ever wonder why white clouds take flight
in the middle of the night,
just chasin' thunder's tail?
~(The clouds are being compared to humans who deliberately put themselves in dangerous situations such as suicide)~
Ever wonder 'bout you and me
at the bottom of the sea,
while both our souls set sail?
~(drowning)~
Ever think about me at night,
how I'm never too kind?
Follow me, 'cause you know I'll fail
~(This part makes me think of possible reasons for suicide)~
Make you wonder about heading home
where your lovers can't roam,
stab your back, throw you down the well
~(This part is about giving up and just wanting to get away from everyone, even the ones you love who supposedly love you too but hurt you anyways)~
You ever think about both our mouths
'round the barrel of a gun?
Make it fast, won't feel a thing
~(shooting yourself)~
Ever think about hangin' out
from the limbs of the tree,
swing above our buried rings?
~(hanging yourself)~
You ever think about givin' up?
Take the pills in that cup,
sleep forever if you knew you could?
~(overdosing on drugs)~
Make me think about cuttin' close
to the veins that hold love,
let them bleed out on the wood
~(cutting yourself)~
In my opinion I think the song is about suicide;
