I think I've listened to this song every day for the past month. Alkaline Trio has been my favorite band for so long, but since the death of a really close friend (who also loved them) this all means so much more. This song is about the confusion that comes with death. The feeling of hopelessness and guilt... i agree with firstars about this being to God... it's such a touching song... "and I now have nothing but your heartbeat in my head and a photograph of my traveling friend." because all you have are the memories... their geniuses--i just want to know his motivation behind this song
