Cover art for Breathing By Wires lyrics by Juliana Theory, The

this song is just incredible.

i think this song is just about dependency in general. depending on something else to make you comfortable. it may be a razor, or sucidal impulses to make you feel better...or it may be technology or some type of computer addiction to amuse you and make you feel better. it's just dependencies. "did you think it would cradle you until you fell asleep. did you?" - that sounds like it is saying that you may think that whatever you have a dependency on will make the pain or reality go away, but it doesn't.
