So long story short, Shub, the urban legend is that when Phil was a boy, he saw his friend drown and he was too far away to help but he saw a man who was close enough to help out his friend, but instead stood and watched.
So he wrote this song and tracked down the man and invited him to sit front row in one of his concerts, and debuted this song and dedicated it to this man, and the guy knew what Phil was referring to. And after the show, the guy apparently killed himself.
