Okay, so what exactly did Dylan mean? I think this song represents someone who is pretty f**ked up on substances. David Gray has made no big secret of his involvement with such ("Betty Ford, won't you be my valentine?"). "Don't wanna feel tonight?" Most of us are familiar with the perfect solution to that problem. White ladder could be cocaine. I am not condemning Gray here. He simply has a great way of putting feelings into songs. This one is about forgetting.
