"In My Place, In My Place..."

Want to know exactly where you stand with someone? Here's a fun little experiment you may want to try yourself...

Lose someone you love.

A person's reactions to that, and to you, will tell you all you really need to know. Some will amaze you; others will disappoint. People you haven't heard from in years will surprise you with their kindness and generosity. People you carried through their own darkest moments will muster no more than "I'm sorry."

That hurt can cut almost as deep.

And yeah, how long must you wait for it?
Yeah, how long must you pay for it?

Maybe those people cried for the better part of the night after learning of your loss. Maybe those people couldn't even go to work the next day. Maybe those people thought you really didn't want to hear from them.
