If we keep in contact will you stand by?
Bide no longer in these times
Look to see the progress, keys are in line
I'm not the things you've needed, left parts behind

Retrieval on the sidelines
Cast on, cast off, bones will not bind
We've run atop my broken glass
This pain will not last, your pains are from mine
But may we keep in contact with no stand by?

Don't you think it's too much like fire and ice?
Yours is Home Alone while I watch the Poltergeist
Too much like fire and ice
Yours is Home Alone while I watch the Poltergeist

Don't you think it's too much like fire and ice?
Yours is Home Alone while I watch the Poltergeist
Too much like fire and ice
Yours is Home Alone while I watch the Poltergeist

    My Opinion

    Love the song. Has a haunting vibe. No pun intended (considering the poltergeist reference).

    I wonder if the "yours is home alone, I watch the poltergeist" line is simply referring to the movies. Still fits with the break-up interpretation of the song. She likes Home Alone, while he prefers Poltergeist. It goes with the "fire and ice" image. They (the couple in the song) are very different. They have different tastes and needs that clash.
