this song is indeed quite amazing. the background effects and such during the "what is this shit you keep selling me boy" part and whatnot is great.
anywho...my take? well, since the whole willing well series (and the whole cd for that matter) is sung from the prospective of the writer, i think he's trying to tell claudio to quit bitching about newo (what is this shit you keep sending me boy? i'm not going to hold your hand anymore) while at the same time saying he's going to tell the story of newo's disception (and newo? you'll burn in hell while they're digging you out). and towards the end the writer is laying it out for claudio, letting him know that he has to decide if he'll still be dedicated to newo even after all she's done, and even when the war with the mage is going to burn the world (with the last breath of air/as the earth comes trembling down/would you give her this last night/the love of your life?).
non story line interpretation? claudio(as in the singer, not the character)'s friends all telling him that bitching about nikki was getting old...and he needs to decide whether or not he wants to stay dedicated to her. while they sympathize, saying nikki (newo for the uninitiated) is a bitch who should burn in hell, claudio needs to stop spreading stories of her whoredom...they're growing old.
