This song starts out with a couple in love at one time, but now too angry and sensitive to survive anymore in loving relationship. The first chorus refers to depression--not caring for anything in life because he/she knows that when his/her spouse gets back, there will be such hell to deal with, the end of verse one I think is a dream of how things used to be, "waking up at dawn to find I lost my crown/ If i find you there with flowers in your hair"; he/she wakes up at dawn with life the same as it has always been, having recently imagined what life used to be like, and a smile exploding symbolizing the end of the dream. Verse 2 deals with the depression treated by alcohol which is truly a depressant and will bring him/her back down to a sadder state anyway. Finally, the letter deals with either Love or Suicide. In the case of suicide, the letter will only make it to the floor, it won't be mailed anywhere. In the case of love, it will simply be thrown away and crumpled up--symbolizing the lost relationship.
