I share a theory that explains a lot of stuff in this song. I'm not sure how the Sinistar virus works, so I think it may be possible that it won't work untill a certain time. Therefore, at this point, Claudio can safely be with Newo. However, they don't know when Claudio will go berserk, so they decide to split up for an unknown amount of time. Jesse and his daughter are also with Claudio; I'm pretty sure they helped him rescue Newo from Al the Killer. Anyways, my personal theory is that Wilhelm was using Al the Killer to capture Newo in order to set a trap for Claudio. A Favor House Atlantic is them escaping Wilmhelm, I think. We know Al actually kills himself at the end of Velorium Camper III ("Bye bye world"), so I don't think this song has much to do with him. I'm pretty sure Jesse is really beat up at this point and, as we know from the first few songs, he turned himself in in order to rescue his daughter (and ended up getting tortured, including have his limbs cut. The line about carving her name may be some sort of reference to getting his own arms cut to rescue her. Part of this song seems to be Jesse talking to his daughter before he dies, explaining things to her. "You're father died he passed in his sleep" is someone telling Jesse's daughter of his death. Claudio is then awoken by her crying. The other part of the song, like people have stated, is Claudio missing Newo and wondering when/if he'll see her again. He goes from giving up on Newo (in the beginning of the album) to deeply needing/loving her again. That transition seems to occur during Velorium Camper I. Anyways, I've typed to much alreadly. But I agree; the last two minutes of this song are absolutely amazingly powerful. I love this song so much. |
