Give It All Lyrics

"Give me the shade of a thunder cloud. Give me a good-bye said out loud. Give me the day with no memories. Give me it all."

This part of the song should really hit those that have ever felt the true love of a significant other, and the misery that is left behind when it's gone. The "author" is calling out to the subject for closure, for an end to the storm, if you will. When a relationship that has been so significant is wavering, we tend to find comfort, and discomfort, from the memories playing over and over in our minds, leaving us with bittersweet feelings. It's a begging for all of the bad, and the good, to be washed away and forgotten, but knowing all the while that it could never be. Amazing stuff!
