Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Stockholm Syndrome. By Songfacts®.

This is about a relationship that you feel trapped in (The term "Stockholm Syndrome" was coined by a Swedish doctor after hostages in a Stockholm bank robbery started to identify and even become attracted to their captors - the term is used to describe an instance of loving someone who holds you captive) but is going nowhere (references to flying, falling and burning; loving hoping and dying to no avail). The chorus is like an apology for abandoning and forgetting the other person, but secretly wishing that it was over: "The last time I'll forget you - I wish I could."

The solo and outro are played the exact same way as the intro, just in a different speed and key.

This began life as a filler riff during live shows until the band decided to expand it into a full song.
