Headless, Sleeping Soundly

i think this about the days after a break up and how it is just easier to keep to yourself

"when i open up I spill over and over and over. My eyes burn like sores so i keep them closed whenver i can."

but sometimes you can be your own worst enemy

well i agree with you both everyone has atleast one painful breakup and ive jus expirenced it and its not easy...i think its about breaking up with sumone u loved and depended on...and u feel like they are wut u have left and after u lose them u feel all the pain and it feels like ur heart swells in your throat and its so easy ta be upset and get depressed b/c of it but the real truth is that there are so many problems within urself that u had kept inside and ignored b/c u had sumthin good but once thats gone everything "spills" out u let go of all the other pain inside and its easy ta blame it ona breakup b/c u know were that pain is coming from...well confusing huh?? but hopefully u get what im sayin lol lotsa love, Cynthia

I think the first line, and maybe the whole song, is a reference to Shawshank Redemption.

"Drag a chair across the floor. Scratch your name into the wood above my door. " this refers to the scene when Brooks carves "Brooks was here" in the rafter and then hangs himself from it.

"You really gave it your all, but you're finished here. You are finished here!" this could refer to the letter that Brooks sends to the prisoners he left behind. The letter says that he is "leaving" the home he has been sent to.
