The second set of stanzas I think follows one boy- his dad was always too busy to play with him, his parents wanted their dreams and ideas to be his life, and he doesn't want that at all so when he leaves he just doesn't care about them because they didn't care about what he wanted. Those lives were wasted, these people died young and unfairly. The third would then be a man with visceral cancer (a cancer of the soft organs mainly in the abdomen) which he probably never realized he had and then it came on him too fast and killed him in a day. The first one about a boy in the hospital, his mom with him, at 2:45 in the morning, and he dies so his dad is called "in the middle of the night." The second stanza would be about a 16 year old who gets in a fatal accident, wrecking his body and the car. In general, I think this song is about wasted lives.įor the first verse, aka the first three stanzas here, I think they are stories. But first, the missing lyrics where the question mark is. I think I have an idea what this song means. With everything around based on principle Looking out to someplace that isn't there
Whether all my dreams are just aimless stares It's been five years and now he's starting to doubt He's looking all around and he doesn't understandĬause life's too busy, things get in the way Twenty three now, got his life in his hands He didn't want the kids and he didn't want his wife He never had a truly happy moment in his life Wonder's why he doesn't call and why he doesn't care They never bothered with his dreams only thinking of theirs His parents wonder what all the rush is about He's looking for his father and he doesn't understandĬause dads too busy he's got some deals on the wayĪnd he's eighteen he couldn't wait to move out He's seven years old, got his bat in his hand
Sick in the morning and he died in the night The body in the car wouldn't die that night The body knows what happens if he turns to the right Takes a turn to the left, it would be his last His breath gets short and his chest gets tightīut he's sixteen and he's driving too fast The father gets a call in the middle of the night The mother never knew he only had a few left It's 2:45 the baby takes his first breath
