"And all I can taste is this moment.Īnd all I can breathe is your life, And sooner or later it's over, I just don't want to miss you tonight. You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be, And I don't want to go home right now." He's married/committed but he doesn't care, he wants the girl so badly, he'd rather not go home to his wife.

It think that is the point with the song: That you found the one that finally is able to get you to make sense of everything. Because she makes you better, and you know it. So you give everything and hope that is enough, and you grow, and you become better, always wishing that, this time, it might be enough, that this time she might not be taken away from you.

I think the song is all about having found the person you are meant to be, the one who can truly understand you. 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand. Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive.
