He certainly did earn that reputation.
The one time when we woke up
We couldn't stop the sparks
We couldn't see outside
When the curtains fell apart
We couldn't hear the books
When the pages curled away
We should shut that window we both left open now
We lost our chance to run
Now the doors to hot to touch
We should hold our breath with mouths together now
We couldn't stop the sparks
We couldn't see outside
When the curtains fell apart
We couldn't hear the books
When the pages curled away
We should shut that window we both left open now
We lost our chance to run
Now the doors to hot to touch
We should hold our breath with mouths together now

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
I always interpreted it as a story about two people who have a lot of tension and chemistry between them,didn't want to fall for one another, but have (similar to "I Don't Want Love", actually).
Upon "awakening," or returning to reality after a daze-like establishment of love for each other, they find that the connection they share is too strong; both the inability to "stop the sparks" and the "window" they "both left open" indicate flirtation/affinity and accidental vulnerability; the lyrics about the "door" being "too hot to touch" and the suggestion of holding their "breath with mouths together" tell me/them they're too far gone for each other to be able to deny it any longer, and they might as well go with it, even if that means they die together.
Again, just my thoughts.
