I was wondering though, at live performances, what is played immediately prior/leading into/an extended intro to this song? I was at detroit last night and it was amazing. Agreed | Reviewer: Grant F. | 10/17/07 Yea Jason H. I think you have a valid point...if you know any of the story that took place between Taking Back Sunday and Brand New, then this could easily be one of the metaphors tossed back and forth lyrically between the bands. Then again it could be about grandmothers and a Guatamalan pool boy named Kyle. Good call though. What the song is about. | Reviewer: i'm right | 10/16/07 The song is about a friend of the singers who died. He is creating a simile or metaphor between how he feels without his lost friend and how a captain feels when his ship is about to go down in the cold barren salt sea. Oh, wow | Reviewer: SomeStudent | 10/13/07 Scrolling through iTunes and settling on this song was such a coincidence. The line "And I wish for one more day to give my love and repay debts," never rang more true. Before you find yourself a body washed up on the shore, know that what you have said affects your position now. I think the lyrics suggest some kind of reflection they wish they had done. You will fully understand this song when your ship is dashed to bits on the reef and you have no option but to accept that the risks you have taken on love have lead you here. Different Meaning | Reviewer: Kar | 9/28/07 I have always thought the meaning of this song is more then jsut a bad a love. I first heard this song at a christian camp so I have always inputed it as a biblical relationship. It might not be but listen to it again and think about lonely lives and how helpless u feel without God but how he he doesn't leave and how a funeral separates you. I love it!!! Amazing | Reviewer: Aj | 9/13/07 This is my favorite Brand new song and its because how deep it is. It makes you really think and most music these days doesnt do that. I would have to go back to Nirvana and smells like teen spirit to have a song with such meaning and have it be as deep. Me and my gf broke up after 3 and a half years and this song just fits it all together. Amazing | Reviewer: Aj | 9/13/07 This is my favorite Brand new song and its because how deep it is.

Amazing | Reviewer: AJ | 9/13/07 This has recently become my favorite song after I really focused on the lyrics and the meaning. Honestly you dont find songs that are this deep anymore, I havent seen a song this well written since Nirvana Smells like teen spirit. Me and my gf just broke up after almost 4 years and this song fits us perfectly and it gets me through the day. Also when he says "I spoke the words (after the storm) but never gave a thought to what they all could mean." I think he means that he broke up with the girl and he didnt expect that he would be the one missing her. i'd like someone's input on this | Reviewer: -Jason H. | 9/6/07 "they call them rogues; they travel fast and alone-" -i think what he may be talking about here is a rogue, a thief, as in a pirate or 'sea rogues' as they are sometimes called, that stole his loves affections. a fast thief that darted in and attacked the relationship as it began during a time of trial: four months at sea, four months of calm seas-meaning the beginning of the relationship, which was tranquil, peaceful-to be pounded in the shallows-an argument, a hard ship that they were going through, during which the thief stole her heart. <- ? tell me if someone agrees with my theory. -altogether i think this song is about love, or a person he loved that led to a trial in which they broke apart, and before he could ask for forgiveness, or they could make amends, she was gone. separated by a 'funeral' her death... this song is beautiful, and i love it. it really moves me. and i think these are the best lyrics i've ever seen put into music. This is what i got from this song... | Reviewer: Mark F | 7/31/07 I DO believe this song is about a lover or a friendship. The first verse seems to give a description of how dangerous a relationship can be and he compares it to sailing on the sea. "What they call love is a risk, to always get hit out of nowhere By some wave and end up on your own." This quote seems to clue the listerener about this metephore between love and a ship. "Your tongue is a rudder. It steers the whole ship, sends your words past your lips, Or keeps them safe behind your teeth. But the wrong words will strand you, come off-course while you sleep, Sweep your boat out to sea or dashed to bits on the reef." This verse has to do with a comparison of how the actions and words you share in a relationship can be compared to the direction the boat is sailed. If you lie or aren't true it'll strand you in a relationship of nothing or just crash or end. Then the next verse is about his undying hope.... "To the port I see the lighthouse through the sleet and the rain." Through all the hard times(sleet and rain) he can still have hope to reach that glorious out come he's looking toward(the light house, or feeling at home) but in the end it just wont work... "But the morning finds our bodies washed up thirty miles west." Then this verse i'll add my thoughts in between [ ]'S "(This is the end.) This story's old, (this is the end) but it goes on and on until we disappear.[they keep having this problem of falling apart but they'll still love eachother until finally it just ends] (This is the calm.) Calm me and let me (this is the calm) taste the salt you breathed while you were underneath.[i'm not sure but it seems like he's saying like let me know it'll be ok] (We are the resin) i am the one (we are the resin) who haunts your dreams of mountains sunk below the sea.[something so beautiful as love can die as well] (After the storm.) I spoke the words (after the storm) but never gave a thought to what they all could mean.[never knew what he was really saying when he said i love you] (Rest here with thee,) i know that this (rest in the deep) is what you want.[deep down he knows it whats she wants even if it's what "her head is telling her and not her heart"] (Washed up on the beach.) A funeral keeps both of us apart.[if this lvoe dies we can finally be apart and at rest] You know (washed up on the beach.) that you are not alone.[i'm still always there for you] I need you like water in my lungs."[but i just can't live with you, hence the metephore of sailing he's gunna drowned if he keeps her in his life] Add Your New Review About The Song By Pages:   1    2    3    4    5    6    7    8
