Also, who are you showing you still care? Your loved one? Don't you think there are better ways to do it? And if you're doing it to show other people you still care, doesn't that say something negative about your priorities? I also don't know how you expect black roses and Hail Mary's to bring back your loved one. Leaving flowers on their grave to show that you still care? The lyrics seem a bit superficial compared to the first two verses of the song.

This is where the lyrics get a bit shaky. The person left behind is distant from Heaven and their loved one, and the world the person is left behind in is so different from how it was when their loved one was there. The third and fourth line of lyrics reveal how torn apart the person is by the loss of their loved one. The words of someone who's lost someone special and is desperately seeking them. This develops into 3 second frenzy of drumming before the rest of the musicians come in. The song begins with 6 seconds of slow drumming by drummer Ron Welty.
