I first heard this song when is was released in 1992. My father died, drowning in his own blood, in front of me on the kitchen floor, 16 days after in my 18th birthday, in 1992. That song helped me survive that year. And ever since, each and every time I hear it, I burst in tears. It hits SO deep, SO true, for EVERYONE, ever, all over the world. Take comfort in your friends, indeed ... without my friends in that 1992 year, I would have thrown up my hand and let go of life.

Just know that, tommorow will be better, and the day after that will get better. Leave the things behind that hurt you.
