Hidden Message in Nowadays Metal Songs: Epilogue

Okay - I thought I screwed my speech. I do really thought! Five minutes are too little for me. Okay and since I didn't have enough time to explain in the class for the last song - The Last Night by Skillet, here's the brief part about the song :-

John Cooper (singer) said the story behind this song is real - the character, the storyline are all real. A girl, who thinks she brought disaster to her family wants to commit suicide because she had a terrible family and no friends at all. Nobody knows that every night she cuts herself. And one day, John and his wife (guitarist) meet the girl - sit down and talk to her. John says, "You're passionate and we understand you have a friend and that is God. All you gotta do is to pray to Him whenever you're down."

So from there - the song came up and is dedicated to her. The best part about behind this story is that Skillet themselves went to the girl's house, confronted her and made her happy. Oh I wish Ville Valo came to me and kissed my forehead -____-

So there! So I'd like to conclude my epilogue of my speech (which actually I had no time to say this in the class) with the video of The Last Night. Okay, not forcing you to watch but Ms Cheryl if you're reading this, do watch. I got goose bumps whenever I watch this and I don't know about you :)
