Lyric discussion by another lonely day 

Cover art for Claire lyrics by Jimmy Eat World

to me, the end of the relationship j.e.w. sings about is nearly inevitable. however, he still wants the relationship to continue (i can still see you around). i think the song is about the hard choices we have to make in our life & the refusal to see obvious changes occuring (attention focused on today)

i covered this song with my friend josh at an open mic i hosted. we each played an acoustic guitar, him on lead. i sang the lyrics & he did the back-up & harmony vocals. this is the song that first got me interested in jimmy eat world.
