I read somewhere that the point behind this song is that people are too obsessed with death and the after life and how if we are "good" all through out our life it won't matter anymore cuz we'll go to heaven so the guy in the song goes through life without feeling any of his emotions too strongly and thinking life "is just a phase" in a greater scheme of things
okay this is for everyone hes saying life is a girl okay so hes saying the girl he loves has a boyfriend gosh its not that hard to understand get it she dosent really notice him thats why he wants death but he dosent because the girl
Love this song...Thought it was pretty weird until I heard Max explain it. Max is so well rounded even though he has had such a hard life. He understands the deepest part of people and what they are saying when they complain about life. Then he puts that into music...truly an amazing human being.
@Boroviac ehh i dont think so. its like life isnt treating him well enough because 'she' is already taken. as much as he likes her, he cant have her. its a metaphor, fool. =P
i love the part with the cute little xylophones. its cute and chilling <3

Song is cool, but dude sounds like he's slobbering during the whole song. I half expected Daffy Duck to close it out.
