Foo Fighters - Still Lyrics Meaning

I think this song could very much be about suicide and its got that mellow depressing tune to back up this theory.

'bring some change up to the bridge......there we'll make a final wish just before the fall'-suggests jumping off of overpass above amotorway.

'Watch the sunrise all alone
Sitting on the tracks
Hear the train come roaring in
Never coming back.....broken bones scattered on the hill'-suggests sitting on the railway tracks waitingfor the train to hit him. Then his broken body will be all over the hill his was previsously sitting on that morning.

the chorus goes...
'Promise I will be forever yours
Promise not to say another word
Here forever deep beneath the dirt
Nevermind whats done is done
Always was a lucky one'- he promises that he will belong to her forever even after death. 'never mind whats done is done' may be him saying if he does commit suicide and decide to regret it (crazy I know since as your dead you can't regret anything but you hear these stories from unsuccessful sucides and theyre glad it didn't work as they reliezed that they actually don't want to die)it will be alright as he was lucky em=nought to be loved by the person he's leaving behind.

anyway that's how I like you look at it. you're welcome to give a go yourselves
