Who is the Orange Rose?

I'm not exactly a "down to Earth" kind of guy, but I'm not far out of it either. I'm average, I suppose. I have normal wants, normal needs, but the way I go about life is what makes everything different. I care about everything. I care about what people think of me and I care about those same people, too. Everything matters, even if you say it doesn't. I can find a reason for why it matters. I just care. I want my friends to be okay, and I want them to feel loved and appreciated. I'm a loving guy. What can I say?

Diamond Eyes (Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom)- Shinedown

I took a moment to analyze an amazing song by Shinedown.


I understand what the song means. It's about him telling the person he's with that he loves her for the first time, and she is taken aback. She's been hurt before, and is afraid that if she feels for him any more, she'll get hurt again. He is trying to assure her that he'll always be protecting her, because he's been through the same situation, the same heartbreak. He's saying that he's protecting her, and will even protect her from himself if needed. After his last experience, he knows the pain, and won't let his pain happen to her. He then proceeds to say, "Even though I'm fighting for you, I hope you don't leave me." His overlying message is: I'm gonna fight for you, and protect you no matter what. I don't care if it kills me.
