"Scattered" is a brilliant and loving song NOT ABOUT BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG"S FUCKING GIRLFRIENDS OR PAST LOVERS!
IT"S ABOUT HIS DAD.
But I believe in peace, and this is just Billie's perspective. It could be anything you want. But...
If you're a devoted Green Day fan (such as I and a lot of you guys and women) you know that this song is about Billie's dad, Andrew Armstrong, and the very few but heartfelt photos and memories the two has in their photos. For the rest of this comment just relate it to the lyrics.
"Makes me wish that you were here.
Now it seems I've forgotten my purpose in this life.
All the songs have been erased.
Guess I've learned from my mistakes.
Open the past and present.
Now and we are there.
Story to tell and I am listening.
Open the past and present.
And the future too.
It's all I've got and I'm giving it up to you."
