Q: "Where I was, I just found out I wasn't" Damn what an enlightenment-inducing line. What was your inspiration, or have you said this (or conveyed this sentiment) before outside the context of the song?
A: it wrote itself. was simply shopping for an ending line, and in about .5 seconds that one came to mind. i would have rejected it for being too standard (take the first line of the song and sort of 'deflate' it) but i found about 3 meanings within this one so it seemed worth it. also that was before i did like 3 re-writes of the last 60 seconds, but i kept that final line each time. so that was originally written with a different section before it, but out of all those choices it works the best after what it is now
