Live my life around a picture Taken when we met Spending all of my time Chasing your silouette For all we go through I don't wanna change you It's my mind running in reverse Trying not to forget Who we were Where it's at Here we go And we break And we burn (bend) We turn it inside out To take it back to the start And through the rise and falling apart We discover who we are Struggling with the thoughts Change the locks inside my head Reading between the lines Of what you say, and what you said I turn the radio on To drown me out Driving through the night to nowhere Trying to forget Who we were Where it's at Here we go And we break And we burn (bend) We turn it inside out To take it back to the start And through the rise and falling apart We discover who we are And it's all To the wind And it's all In our hands It's all to the wind It's all in our hands And we break And we burn (bend) We turn it inside out To take it back to the start And through the rise and falling apart We discover who we are One of my favs on the album. Discuss.  |

This is also one of my favorites! However, to be quite frank, I think I suck royally at giving good and insightful interpretations. Here we go!! OK, so basically, I think this song is about treasuring a certain person, and the moment that you met that person, and trying not to change how things were in the beginning. It's also about the sacrifices that you make in a relationship, but it through these hardships and difficult sacrifices that you learn who you and the other person are. In other words, without these sacrifices and changes, you're not able to understand your true identity. That's how the And We break/and we bend/ we turn it inside out/ to take it back to the start/ and through the rise and fall/we discover who we are part comes into play. It is essential in all relationships to be yourself and to give all you have to that other person as well as fufilling your own needs, but to become fully "responsible" in the relationship you must have fights and you must "bend and break" to get to the identity part of yourself and your role in the relationship and to discover "who you are" and "who we are" as the couple. Sure, everyone may want the relationship to be like it was in the beginning, you know all "perfect" and "lovey dovey" and that's why I would assume you would "live your life around the picture taken when we met" because you want it to be that way. However, for it to turn out the way you want it, there must be challenges and you must reveal and discover your true identity. I apologize if this is REALLY confusing! I tend to use a lot of my "social worky" feelings when getting involved with things like this. Again, kudos to Jason, the lyrical MAN!

I tend to use a lot of my "social worky" feelings when getting involved with things like this. Again, kudos to Jason, the lyrical MAN! That makes sense. My interpretation is pretty much the same, only i don't really think of it as a relationship thing. To me, it's just kind of a "learning from your mistakes" thing. like, you know that you have to remember the things you've done wrong so you don't repeat history, but at the same time you're "trying to forget who we were". It's kinda like Spin, a "you can't have the good without the bad" deal. Through the ups and downs that you experience, you really get a look at who you are. But at the same time (to quote a 3 Doors Down song) "your mistakes do not define you, they tell you who you're not". This did not make any sense at all, did it. whoops. to summarize, I think it's about learning from your mistakes. |

Again, kudos to Jason, the lyrical MAN! i actually never thought of it thi way but i LOVE it! it makes really good sense to the song and huh.. very intriguing. normally i dont see too many interpretations on here that i can really understand (slash maybe even switch how i view the song), but this one definitely makes sense all around. that being said, i always viewed it like what chimichanga said. |

I hate you don't hate me for being late to the party here but I just had the time to read these area of the board. Anyway.... I agree with this . To sum it up it sounds like a journey to self discovery with the help of a really good relationship where two people bring out the best in each other and make sure neither loses their independant sense of self, if that makes sense. |
