Coheed and Cambria – Goodnight, Fair Lady Lyrics 11 years ago
This has got to be on purpose...right?

The main riff of this song is an enhanced part of the amazing guitar solo in The Willing Well I: Fuel for the Feeding End.

That solo is so unique and one of my favorite guitar solos of all time. I recognized it about 6 seconds into this song, but Coheed doesn't go out of their way to highlight the reference like with "Irobot" and "Delirium Trigger" in "2113" or repeated lyrics like "What did I to deserve..."

Really cool, used to completely different effect here.

I think you have some good ideas and there is definitely aspects of marriage going on here.

However I think this song like most on the Coloring Book EP and The Singles EP has to do with drug/alcohol addiction.

Beyond poor/beyond ostracized makes me think of a drug addict, who really has no connection to this world whatsoever.

Instead of a man married to a whore (a typical GJ theme) I think the man is dealing with his wife who is drinking/doing drugs. "If what I say isn't true..." refers to him lying to her simply to get her to leave this place/mental state and get help.

The chorus is her POV: "I'm afraid you want me to go without."

However "dominus" means owner and there is plenty to suggest prostitution. It might be a combo.
