This is what I hear in this song: A girl loses her virginity to her first love (first took flight in the morning light), then somehow loses that connection. She then takes up a life of hedonism (all the pills and the prophets couldn't get you through) in a desperate search for what she felt that night... She ends up alone (you were found on the ground in a lonely town) because she was trying to replace the superficial aspects of the relationship instead of the internal connection with her ex-lover. Seems someone or someones from her past find her and take her home for what they believe is a necessary intervention or rehabilitation (...back to wichita, where they put you back together, fill your head with straw). The speaker is someone who wants to love her the way her first love did (take me.back...) but can't get close because of who she has become. |
