I think this is about realizing in the midst of a relationship, even as powerful as it is, that it going to end. The "ball of lies," are rearing their ugly heads. Even as much as he wants to keep going, and how much love there might be, he knows he must go. I think she is trying to change something about him, and he is not ready to. "This is the howling at the moon These are the arms you fell into I am a fire and I must burn today" absolutely beautiful. This is the animalistic cry. He is the one for her. But he cannot put out the flame of his heart/soul and change -- not even for the one he loves. This is truly the musical equivalent of the lonely wolf, head thrown back, howling at the moon for something he cannot find himself. |
