[edit] About the Song

At a show at The Vogue in Indianapolis during the Breaking Benjamin/Exies tour, lead singer Tyler Connolly stated that the song was written from the perspective of a deceased individual who had committed suicide.[citation needed] The lyrics represent his regret towards killing him/herself (I missed her sweet smell, I miss it everyday....etc.) and are written in the first person form.
