Great song. It seems to me that this song is tragic to the extreme. It's about a woman who loses her life as a result of a destructive relationship. Perhaps a suicide or maybe at the hands of her lover. The singer offers consolation that she's finally free of him. It seems odd that Ryan says that "everything went up in smoke like wildflowers". Perhaps more evocative than wildfire?
