Hex

I think the album as a whole is dealing with a general theme of loving someone who isn't/wasn't good for you. The red flags were there but, as if struck by a hex, you were too blind to see them. A lover, a friend, a family member, could be anyone.

I felt this way with a friend I'd lost recently. I tried to make things right with them any way I knew but they'd keep freezing me out and pretend like I wasn't there. I felt terribly guilty. I knew I was the one in the wrong. (I know I'm not right but it's so wrong / To be in your sight and know that I'm still gone)

Or so I thought, until I opened my eyes, started connecting the dots and saw them for who they really were. How they'd been manipulating me and playing me all along and how they'd never had my best interest in mind, only their own.

So in a way, I also think this song is about the (self-)resentment that follows after a bad break up or a falling out with someone, when that person never was adding anything of positive value to your life to begin with. (I'll be the one that you let behind the wall / I'll be the one that will watch you as you fall / I would never / I would never close my eyes)

The supernatural parts in this song I think are just meant as metaphors, since it can be really hard to come to terms with why you didn't see the warning signs when you would have under natural circumstances.
