Though Daryl seems to write a lot about his realationships with the fair sex, this song is about his disease, which is Chrone's Disease. It's a genetic intestinal disorder; basically, you get ulcers in your intestines that rupture when they please. It's often been referred to as children shivering in the river. "You might lose the one you chose" is Daryl "talking to " his disease. He's saying that since Chrone's can be lethal (he could bleed to death if he hemmorages), it can lose him. I think that "the most ironic place to be" could be that he could have an attack while onstage, or maybe on the can. This song is one awesome song.
