I think this song is all about the pain of relationships in your adult life, about how when you begin to have serious realtionships you can hardly ever have what you really want, and if you do get it, the timing is wrong. the lines "die youg and save youself" kind of back that up. i think those lines are saying that the pain that comes from relationships as an adult can sometimes be worse than death, so save yourself the agony and end it before you experience it. ya i'm gonna stop now, me and my friend went on for like 3 hours talking about this song and what it means and everything, so ya, i could go on for a while
You are frakin awesome! Thats exactly what i was saying... but i was too lazy to type it all. Very Nice
