THE DEFINITION OF THIS SONG

 Assalamualaikum
this is one of my favourite song from a day to remember..cause when I read the lyric, its kinda related to me huhuhu

So I say goodbye to a town that has ears and eyes
I can hear you whispering as I walk by
Familiar faces smiling back at me and I knew
This would make them change

The only thing that's going to bother me
Is that you'll all call yourselves my friends

Why can't you look me in the eyes one last time?

The writings on the wall, you've read that I'll be gone, but if you call my name
Just know that I'll come running, for one more night to spare with you
This is where I'm meant to be, please don't leave me

I've read these stories a thousand times, and now I'll rewrite them all
You're meddling in an anger you can't control
She means the world to me, so hold your serpent tongue
Is a whores lies worth dying for? I'll just take my time

The only thing that's going to bother me
Is that you'll all call yourselves my friends

Why can't you look me in the eyes one last time?

The writings on the wall, you've read that I'll be gone, but if you call my name
Just know that I'll come running, for one more night to spare with you
This is where I'm meant to be, please don't leave me

I walked into your house this morning
I brought the gun from our end table
Your blood was strewn across the walls
They'll find you on your bathroom floor when I'm done
But should I write it all off?

You should have killed me when you had the chance




 the meaning behind this song

"So I say goodbye to a town that has ears and eyes"
/* saying goodbye to a home town, its actually really poetic what he says here, hes running away, he feels the town hes in see and hears what he does, like its evil or something, usually thats the embodiment you give something that is evil anyways. */

"I can hear you whispering as I walk by"
/* this is accually used in poetry to describe that hes thinking of someone, he can hear them in his head */

Familiar faces smiling back at me and I knew this would make them change
/* he can see the faces of people he knows smiling at him as he walks/drives, memories */

"The only thing that's going to bother me
Is that you'll all call yourselves my friends"
/* he finds it heartbreaking knowing someone who has hurt him so bad would call them self his friends, obvious who ever hes talking bout has betrayed him in some way */

"Why can't you look me in the eye one last time?"
/* it hurts him that he cant be looked in the eyes anymore. ussually when someone has done something harmful to someone, they have a hard time looking at them the same way anymore, i belive thats the case here. */

"The writings on the wall, you've read that I'll be gone, but if you call my name just know that I'll come running"
/* hes left something behind, hes leaving, but not his feelings for whom ever hes speaking of. so if they call him he still feels obliged to help, the trouble being of course he doesn't feel they need him */

for one more night to spare with you this is where I'm meant to be, please don't leave me
/* he still obviously cares for what he left behind but he doesn't feel he belongs there, sp hes saying even though hes gone he doesnt want to lose what he had */

"I’ve read these stories a thousand times, and I’ll rewrite them all"
/* hes seen this so many times before, now hes going to change how it ends for once. */

"You’re meddling in an anger you can’t control
She means the world to me, so hold your serpent tongue
Is a whores lies worth dying for? I'll just take my time"
/* i think this is where the song takes an interesting turn, he seems to be referring for the first time that what he left behind was a girl, i feel that this is actually a conversation he has at one point with someone that had entered her life while she was gone. i believe the line 'is a whores lies worth dying for' is actually something someone said to him when he was talking about the situation and that possibley what had entered this girls life is another guy that hes not getting along with */



I walked into your house this morning
I brought the gun from our end table
Your blood was strewn across the walls
They'll find you on your bathroom floor when I'm done
/*this could be referring to the girl or guy, knowing jeremys writing style most likely the girl but i dont think he guy should be ruled out. personally i believe its the guy, but the message regardless of who it is intended for is very clear */

But should I write it all off?
/* this is actually a figure of speech, meaning really that, he cant decide if he should let it all go. */

You should have killed me when you had the chance
/* referring to the girl or guy, that she/he should have ended it before he had that chance to because it would have ended better */
