[BrendanAuustin]

this is to my ex! wow! anyone with a brkoen heart can relate to this!

[NOTALLME2005]

Dedicated to my true love ...Here's to happy endings babe =)

[TheShmuey]

@NOTALLME2005 Might you mean UNhappy endings? Cause this song is absolutely not about happy ones.

[NOTALLME2005]

@TheShmuey ...Exactly... It was an extremely UNhappy ending as it says in the song.... I was feeling a little angry & sarcastic when I made that comment .... it was an unhappy ending for him.... but it was a happy ending for me because with it came relief....

[PESWIFT100]

SAD song. With sooo much meaning. <3 

[nfd1960]

this song is about suicide and the thoughts by the person when they are doing it

[nfd1960]

this song is about suicide and the thoughts by the person when they do it

[jesuswhaleking]

The joke is on you . lol Forgot the one true God and looking for man to save us .Jeremiah 17 v 5 What happen to our Commandments.Turn your backs on him and he will turn his back on us. What happen to the USA.Can we see yet. The USA thinks its a joke.

[STEELNUTSACK]

@jesuswhaleking Trust people like you to go to unbelievable lengths to relate everything to the bible. Lifehouse aren't a christian band, some of their songs are inspired by god and that's it.

RIP Paul Moran

[xIBasicIx]

nice one.

when you fight me in the morning , hang on a warning :)

[judgejudyslover]

@xIBasicIx I thought he said "when you find me in the morning hanging on a warning"

[KellytheKittyLover]

@xIBasicIx It's "When you find me in the morning, hanging on a warning." When you take the context then it makes sense.

[Wakingcorpse]

Life be come a night mare thax to the bullys and theis song state that it can bring life to an end

[CrrAzZYyY]

This song is so awesome. Its so different to all the other Lifehouse songs but I love it. Shows the world what happens because of bullying.

I cant stop listening, Jason is so unbelievable great! God bless him and the band.

[missariellynn27435]

The first time I heard this I didn't really like it, but I kind of do now... it grows on u lol

[mystermanhatesuu]

now its in my favorets

[btfrox]

in the chorus i thought it said fuck instead of find lol

[kodochas1fan]

I ♥ THIS SONG!!!!

[hammyxpertandmore]

I finally read that this song was written when jason heard of a boy who hung himself because he was being bullied too much at school. Bless that man.

[fiptuss]

i love this song it is so well awsome i have the album my friend got it for me micksmooth you should get it it has a lot of cool songs on it

[MickSmooth]

the only song I've heared so far where the great voice of the singer isn't being wasted on soft ballads. If there only were more songs of this kind on the album... This is a great great song. Don't know if I should buy the album only because of this one song. But looks I'll do. ;-)

[XNightwish95X]

my fav lifehouse song

[Aeikatherina]

I love this song. :)

[roker2965]

for some reason this song was built in my mp3 player

[ninired13]

yeah mine to the insignia one

[sagetashacmont]

um...idiot wrote the lyrics wrong it's not "breakdown is awaking me" its "breakdown is erasing me". At least...I think it is lol.

[purexdesire]

i wouldnt call him an idiot. its a simple mistake

[charlie4jones]

If your going to make such a bold statement, you should really back it fully, you sound unsure and so now 'you' sound like the 'idiot'.

[flyandkissthesky]

I love my friend, he got me into this band X3 *Loves it to no end at this point*

[balthazar117]

In case anyone was wondering why this song sounds like its out of the norm w/ the rest of the bands music its probably b/c it was written by both jason and rick instead of just jason like most of the other songs.

[soccergirlsteph]

this song is about my gay ex!!! =[

[angelwings167]

this song makes me sad because it reminds me of one of my friends....but i love it

[stacy6831]

I love this song so much :-)

[OMGLIFEHOUSE]

He is the best artist that i have ever heard/ will ever hear!!!! Every song I have heard from them I seriously like. This song is about a boy in the UK who hung himself because of peer pressure and every-one making fun of him at school. So Jason heard about this and made the boys family know that someone cares.

[imcoolrthnu]

his voice is awesome

[imcoolrthnu]

i want to see the official video!

[Meriadoc1234]

I don't think there is an official video yet

[imcoolrthnu]

yea me either but i hope they will come out with one soon its an awesome song

[babylou2]

most A.M.A.Z.I.N.G sone E.V.E.R!!!! i love you lifehouse!

[TTTToriTheTank]

I just heard this song for the first time last week and i loved it

[carteer716]

my favorite songs are the joke,and first time,the kidzbop version is horrible

[VideoFu99]

this song has a deep meaning. a boy who wanted to suicide over various reasons. just listen to the lyrics carefully and u'll understand

[Metalmansogetalife]

ya but the last verus: "My great escape

Is my biggest mistake

I think you better turn around

Don't throw it away

Today... today..." is when a friend tries to turn him back..to stop him.

[breann105]

This song is quite awesome. I'd say that if you like this one you should listen to any and all other Lifehouse songs, lol. However, if you like the rock sound more, you could try "Quasimodo" and "Anchor". They are both awesome as well. :-)

[metcalfbaby12]

NOBODY CARES ABOUT UR MOM!!!!!

[onyxcheerleader94]

hahah funny

[xxmudbloodxx]

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!

I LOVE LIFEHOUSE!!!

if you like this song, you will most likely like

"from where you are" and "whatever it takes"

both also by lifehouse. <3!

[littlenikki15]

f*ckin deadly songs by lifehouse! haha from where you are and whatever it takes are theee shit lol

[Vampiress363]

[ejbuzard]

it is sad if you look deep and read and read and read the lyrics. but a good song neverless

[angelrockerchick08]

love this song

[SigneAlexander]

Æ lige denna sangen ^^

It's sad :/ But beautiful :) <3

[jeffbobs]

Known for his brooding lyrics of teenage angst resulting from his parents' divorce and his own poor relationship with his father, Wade explores more diverse songwriting topics this time around, putting himself into other characters in songs like "The Joke," with its syncopated world beat, inspired by a newspaper article detailing the story of a British boy who hung himself after being bullied by schoolmates.

extract from offical website

[onyxcheerleader94]

wow !!!!!

[coday15]

It's about suicide but not about him. he read a story about an kid in Asia that committed suicide like how the song said. So yeah, it's someone else's suicide song.

[coday15]

hey

[roswellyeti]

OK I'M stupid, what is this song about? Suicide ?

[LilPrincessKayKay]

i l0V3 THiS S0NG!!

[Gebbyness]

[Gebbyness]

I saw them in Trento last night, along with Boys Like Girls, Simple Plan, and Avril Lavigne. The concert was the best concert I've ever been to, especialy with Avril Lavigne at the end and the heart-skull, but personally Lifehouse was the best!

[fruitygrl]

Don't kill yourself! You're too hot! Anyway, luv this song. ^_^

[LizZuni]

I saw them in Austin! They were AMAZING!!! I love this song! :D

[LAYSCHEESEEVEREST]

[mjividen34]

[zacsbiggestfan62]

[Lexi474]

[krista495]

This is one of there best songs!

[clarissarutherford]

I LOVE THIS SONG

[ens49]

I absolutely LOVE this song! I saw Lifehouse sing it LIVE last night!!!

[mayuxpucho]

[mayuxpucho]

there was an assembly at my school.... this song is based on a true story. its about a 13 year old who commited suicide becuz of bullys... search 13 year old hangs himself.

[roswellyeti]

Thats horrible,, how sad........

[steveshopping]

classic got the album the day it came out

QUALITY

[DrFunk412]

wow!

this is very different from the other lifehouse songs, and i really like it!!!

[7eleven987]

Awesome beat and lyrics, perfect mix!

[muffinman1212]

i really wish i could see them in concert with the googoo dolls... they both are pretty good, but lifehouse is WAY better

[clarkentismyhero]

I just saw them in concert with the goo goo dolls and they were awesome!!! this is one of my fav songs they did great performers!!!

[xosoccergirl998]

i LOVE lifehouse!!! i saw them in concert w/ the goo goo dolls and colbie caillat and they were AMAZING!!! this was one of my favorite songs!!!<3

[zazazouni]

Yeah i seen that show too ! Lifehouse are very good But GooGoo are very amazing !loll

[SneakingFart]

momma mommy mom....mamma

[StonewolfAOD]

No Maroon 5 feel, its too strong for them. I think more like Dispatch or State Radio when I hear this. Its definately one of my favorites though!

[haydenlvr9]

i LOVE this song thanx 4 uploading!!!

[xaghce]

This is a great song ^_^, I just got the CD today in the mail. I think this song feels quite different from most of the other songs since it's a lot stronger, I love it ^o^

[moose0884]

Anyone else think that this has a Maroon 5ish feel?

[steve23guy]

there are 3 good songs on the album, storm, broken, and this one :)

[windwitch]

In my personal opinion, Maroon 5 has a Lifehousish feel :P

[fReEkoFmCfLy]

yeah, i can see what you mean

[fredjk351]

I've followed Lifehouse since the first single, and i never thought the were like Maroon 5. But, if anything it should be Maroon 5 sound like Lifehouse

[fReEkoFmCfLy]

im not dissing it, i like lifehouse more than maroon 5. btw, this is a kickass song.

[fredjk351]

I just mean maroon 5 sound like lifehouse not lifhouse sounds like maroon 5 because lifehouse as far as i can remember were out a long time before maroon 5 were

[fReEkoFmCfLy]

ok, well thats taken care of, no hard feelings?
