Keanu once remarked that this was one of his f avorite Dogstar songs, because the riffs have shades of Joy Division. While this song does not overtly remind me of Joy Division, I do like the lyrics and the melody. I especially love the lyric set, "...that didn't work, that let me down..etc".
This song is obviously about two friends (or a man and woman in a relationship) who are trying to stay sober. He is pleading with her to try harder "Have you no pride to stay straight/You've become everythign you hate".
Nicely said, and a good tight musical treatment to the song, Joy Division-esque or not.
