I think what draws me to the music is for each song there is this undertone meaning that each person can associate with. "Light Years" could be losing someone way before their time and how unfair it is. "Thumbing" could mean the same thing, depends on how the listener interprets it. That is why I love this band for providing me outlets to let things out and dig deeper into the meaning of my life and the strange occurances I must deal with.
Nobody wishes for death, but I remember a line from one of my favorite TV shows, "Six feet Under".
"Why is there death?"
"Cause with death comes new life"...

hate to kill your guys' ideas (i always thought the same aswell), but isnt this about his barber who died of HIV or something????
i coulda sworn i heard this story a long while back.
I think it is about someone who knew who died of HIV. However, it always reminds me of my grandpa because death is involved, and one day I expect to see him on the road, you know.
Also, I thought the word "dad" was in there. Wasn't in the original lyrics?
