    This song is such a raw exploration of the duality of mourning. How you can rage against the unfairness while still reeling from the misery of loss. Such an underrated song that anyone who has lost a loved one can relate to.

    In The Offspring version you strongly feel the anger and frustration that you can't change what happened, but Five Finger Death Punch conveys the sadness better. 2 brilliant versions of the same song

      @michaelserrano3689 You're correct, he wrote this after his girlfriend was killed in a car accident. I don't know what (marc5384152) is talking about, but it has nothing to do with this song if it happened at all.
      》Edit/Addition《
      I checked out the video and channel (marc5384152) referenced and found that channel has a long history of posting videos with false information about subjects that have a polarizing aspect just to get views and comments on his channel. There's even a disclaimer at the beginning of his videos stating that he holds no accountability for the accuracy of the information in his videos

    About 7 years ago my mom was in the hospital for the last time. The rest of the family wanted to pull the plug but me and my sister wanted to take a day to talk about it because we knew our mom would want at least that. So we did and decided that it would be best to let her go. So we got in the car and this was the first song that came on. I immediately hit skip and was like, nah not today. Took like 5 years before I finally said ok and didn't skip the song when it came up.

    @rayactions Indeed, FFDP did a version of this song, to which you already reacted. But nothing to do with one interpretation with the other. The version by FFDP (a band that I like a lot, although not exactly that version) is simply a normal song, with respect to which the virtues it has are not from the version itself, but from the beautiful composition of lyrics and music from the original song, which Dexter Holland composed after having endangered his life and that of his wife in a shooting in which they were accidentally involved (although there is an erroneous legend that Holland composed it in honor of a deceased girlfriend). However, the original Offspring song is a marvel, far, far superior to the FFDP version, not least because Ivan Moody's voice is a very good voice, but Dexter Holland is simply one of the 40s or 50s (I would say i) best vocalists in rock history.
