Once upon a time, I saw this as a theme song to my relatonship with my ex girl friend. She was un happy and in pain and was very silent about it, although the trouble within was clear and would manifest in ways that had nothing to do with the real problems.

The song was true to us but I was wrong with how I viewed it. It was her lonliness who was her partner who inflicted the pain and it was not I that cold comfort her, but it was the pain itself.

None the less the pattern remained and she would go to her partner bringing us into the night, and I would bring us out of the night taking away the thing that brought her comfort and it wasn't me.
