Sorry, I am not in the loop, but I have been looking for this song for ages. And while the author may have intended it to be about addiction, I read it in terms of love, which actually may also be addiction. "Hope is gone, she confessed that when you lay your dream to rest you can get what's second best but it's hard to get enough." The only thing I've wanted out of life is to love and be loved (yes, by the same person), but I just turned 41 and I haven't had a boyfriend for 15 years. I get crazier with every failed pseudo-relationship and everywhere I look I am reminded that I am now an obsolete model. There is no second best for love, no Silver Medal. It's all or nothing, and I've got nothing left to lose. So for me this song is about a chick finally coming to terms with (for whatever reason) her ineligibility to be loved. And deciding on a suicidal-daredevil path. Like someone in Vegas with one last chip playing damn roulette. Still, just me. |
