i believe this song is talking about girl that betrayed him
but I still don't get the lyrics about 'friends in the chorus'.
but the rest of the song sounds like he's ashamed of a girl???

(Chorus):
"Here's to lowering caskets
Of old friends
Choice and consequence
We'll birth a new day
With the death of an old and
Start over, Start over.
Here's To Burying Hatchets Of Those
Who You'd Never Call Your Friend..
We'll Birth A New Day With The Death Of An Old Day And.."

but the bridge of song gives away the whole title of the songs..well that's what I reckon anyways.

(Bridge):
"You Let Yourself Get Carried Away
Don't Act Like Your Ashamed
You Let Yourself Get Carried Away
Bow your head now, accept the blame
You Let Yourself Get Carried Away
Bury this with you, a waste
And Now It's Time To See
What You Don't Mean To Me"

It's about being betrayed by a best friend or girlfriend, not just once, but many times "You let yourself get carried away", and completely starting over.

"We'll birth the new day with the death of an old and start over." It's saying you've betrayed me for the last time, and now I'm going to erase you from my life and memory.

I'm not sure but I think it had to do with a drunk driver who hit and killed one of his close friends or something.

That's where the chorus would fit in.

It's about saying goodbye and forgiving those who wronged u...its about starting over despite what has happened

"here's to lowering caskets of old friends....heres to burying hatchets with those who you'd never call your friends"
