Back in the Day

The band themselves said it's based on "Where The Wild Things Are." It's about loving someone so much you'd be willing to hurt yourself or hurt them to keep them forever. It's specifically based on the line, "Please don't go. We love you so. We'll eat you whole." All of this stuff about drugs and cannibalism is stupid. The band wrote an abstract song about an abstract topic. Obsessive love, folks, that's all it is.

This song is about someone you thought loved you .. My best friend turned her back on me when I lost my 26yr old nephew one year and my fiancee the next year.. When I needed her the most, she bailed on me .. This song always makes me cry, especially the part "It's amazing what the hard times can reveal. Like who shows up, who walks away and who's for real" 13 years we were friends... When someone shows u that their true colors are black, it's heartbreaking, it's devastating and it's unbelievable...

This song I have taken as my theme song.. I believe it means that you're done ... With everything.. When u have done everything right, but everything is still wrong. You've given so much that there's nothing left but ur soul and that's what's breaking inside... You've tried ur whole life to be happy but all u have ever been given is pain... Breaking inside is the last step before suicide ..

I believe this song is about the black sheep kid in the family.. He's always taking advantage of everyone to get what he wants. He's stolen everything of value from his family to support his drug habits.. His parents and grandparents and aunts and uncles have all contributed for rehab, but he never stays.. He's in and out of jail.. He's even stolen from his little brothers and sisters. Everyone has done everything to help him straighten up, but nothing ever works.. So, now it's tough love time.. He's used up all his resources and now he has to do for himself .. His last...
