Though widely debated about exactly what this song is about, most people believe it is about one of two things.
One idea is it is a song about suicide, and the pain and emotion associated with those feelings.
Another idea is that it is a song about a whiny ex-girlfriend, who continues to talk about...
[Intro]
Picking up the pieces of a life you've broken
Stitching it together with the seems wide open
[Chorus]
You keep crying, crying, crying
Till you cannot see at all
You keep crying, crying, crying
Til' you cannot breath at all
What do you do when your alone?
What do you do when no one's home?
What do you do when your alone?
Out of control
Now on your own
[Verse]
Never waking up
The alarm is broken
Running in a dream and it's like slow motion
[Bridge]
Alone ... alone ...
Is there anyone out there?
Is there anyone out..
All I need are the details
Just to find a way out
Is there anyone out there?
Is there anyone out..
All I need are the details
And a map of your mouth
[Chorus]
You can't break away
What you cannot change
You can't break away
You can't break away
You can't break away
What you cannot change
You can't break away
You can't break away
