    The meaning behind The Garden is something I can really get behind. A gardener who likes a girl kills other guys who are in the garden and buries them in the garden to seem like the tallest man in her eyes. It's an allegory to being really insecure, and it's just a straight from the heart song.

    In fact he is but the viewing angle isn't right. Actually the shelves and cd/vinyl cases are really big and his guitar in this video is 6 feet long.

    I think the "other guys" are parts of him that he doesn't want the girl to see. He doesn't want her to see his flaws (the people he's killing) so she'll think he is the best, aka the Tallest Man on Earth.
