Everyone always assumes this song is about a spouse or loved one, but I think it's a song Ed is singing to himself and his breathy vocal delivery

It's not entirely implausible. Once I found out that "Go" was actually about a pickup truck – and he was able to sing it with that much passion – I figure nothing is off the table with this guy.

It would be a bad song even by Creed standards, which it sounds like a rip-off from.LoathedVermin72 wrote:Worst song in the catalog.
