@leeroyfromaus Actually, it's not an allegory for missed opportunity. It's, in reality, fairly literal. I read an interview with Pinky where he described the song as about being torn between two women and not being able to choose. He's admitted before that, with exception to lyrics that Tim Rogers helped him with, he was never very good at metaphors. All of those bent "metaphors" in their weirder songs are the result of drugs and nothing more. But I don't think that detracts from it at all.

The first time I saw these guys was a Big Day Out and, at the end of an amazing set that included nude rollerskating and giant dancing sperm, they pulled this song out. I've never seen a more emotive, beautiful performance, particularly at a festival. This song was what made me buy their album. Just stunning.

I'm spending all my time
Driving 'round, faking clever
With a girl who seem alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I tried to talk to you
And somehow you seem gone... best song ever.

Holy Crap! I just figured something out! I have seen this many times and love the song but I just realised, in the clip that at the start she is fine and healthy but he slowly damages her and at the end he is in the ambulance with her. He doesn't look sorry, he just looks like he likes her a lot and doesn't grasp the gravity of the situation. There is a lot said which is unsaid in this clip. This is a very special song.

Mmmm



Strong memories for me too, Everything might seem right in your life, not worrying about anything, But missing opportuntities is the Story Of this Song, Many regrets in life are Not things u Do or Did, but the Things you Didnt Do, when you had the Opportunity to, Dont Spend to much time Driving Around aimlessly, Fight, Strive and work hard For something you enjoy and Believe in. Thats what this song is about... Send That Letter.
