Just like a crow chasing the butterfly
Dandelions lost in the summer skies
When you and I were getting high as outer space
I never thought you'd slip away
I guess I was just a little too late
they were getting high and then he loved her and she died.
its about losing someone you love dearly.|||Brent Smith explained on a radio interview program, Rockline, that while the band was writing the new album, he had a dream about a mother whose son passes away. He wrote the song about the mom dealing with the death of her child and trying to move on.

Well a crow stands for death so to me it's about death chasing behind life. Beautiful song. Inspires a tattoo for myself.
ReplyDeleteSince it is about a greiving mother the lyrics about getting high as outerspace to me represent when I used to swing her around and then when we got dizzy we looked at the shapes of the clouds in the sky. I actually played this song at my 27 year old daughter's funeral.
