I agree with SeanMurpph in most ways, I would say it's about a relationship where, in this case, the girl has a history of drug use or abuse and is still struggling with the addiction. Each time she relapses she swears it's the last time, it won't happen again. While the man is begging her to live up to her potential, her past doesn't define her and dwelling on it only "slows the momentum" of not only their progress in the relationship but her own progression forward toward a clean start. |

I don't know for sure but this site is about discussing song meanings so if I took what I know about previous As Cities Burn lyrics and apply them to this song I would guess his wife finally figured out she's better than him and left. The singer used to mention his own unfaithfulness and feelings of unworthiness in himself when it came to the woman he "loved". (as he said himself "how do you sleep at night next to your wife who you love too much to tell her you don't love her at all") His actions have always contradicted how he feels. He knows how he should treat the woman he loves but all his actions say he doesn't care. Anyway knowing that, this song would seem to say she finally gave up on him for a better life. |
