Lyric discussion by pragmaticpoetry 

Time wounds all heels. This song simply elaborates on the concept. It's stated simply in [wind in time rapes the flower trembling on the vine]. Everything builds up, life drags you down farther and farther. Corruption.

But you find that escape in love.

[but I fear I have nothing to give, I have so much to lose here in this lonely place; tangled up in our embrace there's nothing I'd like better than to fall]

.. you're convinced that you are nothing, that you do have nothing to give, and you're so used to the emptiness and the depression that it's almost scary to give it up. But you want to. You want to "fall," simply give up all that pain and take solace in the arms of another.

This song kicks so much fucking ass. Turn off the lights, turn up the bass, and close your eyes.
