One thing that does bother me about this song though is that it has the stench of a late 90's weepy band. If the lyrics were more laconic and more woe is me, and there were longer pauses after "I guess its better to turn this way" when they could affect a moment of silence for their lives I feel like it could have been done by and pop-rock outfit. I can't shake it, and it bothers me slightly.

Have you noticed that?
