With all the volcano references in this song is it any wonder Gord's singing about rock. Rocks in the traditional sense, but also friends and people in our lives the we consider "a rock" some one who is always there to help us and make us feel better, and never asks for anything in return. The problem in life is where does the rock turn when they need some support?
I think this song is about some one telling another person who is percieved as a rock that it's alright for them to depend on other people, and all they have to do is ask.
I also like the last string of lines right before the "alone" part. Seems to me like these are just metaphores for life (I especially like "the sweet betrayal").
