Four months (and four days) ago, my boyfriend of four years broke up with me unexpectedly, over text, with no concrete reason, and I never heard from him again. This song was added to his youtube playlist a few days before he texted me, and I didn't think anything of it at the time. I only came back to it today. After reading some of the translations on here, the breakup is making a little more sense to me. I had a huge meltdown that left me "unfit to drive" and "unfit to work" until a few weeks ago, which gave me a lot of time stuck in bed alone with my thoughts and our songs, drinking and smoking until I could sleep. We had clearly gotten too comfortable together, we'd become out of shape, unhappy (individually and together), and had lost all motivation. We had drifted apart, and I had interpreted it as coming closer. It was awful watching his life become so much better without me, while mine spun off the rails. This song reminds me of the long drives on the 401 from home to school. I miss the days when I could enjoy a song without reading into it, looking for how it could fit my problems. We never did get our "find a reason to change" as he silently slipped away from me, not telling me that he was losing interest. I'd do anything for a second chance.

@hannah1480 I've recently had a very similar experience with a close friend of mine. I guess this is why this song also spoke to me so much.
