Cover art for What The Hell Have I lyrics by Alice in Chains

davewah3 hit the nail right on the freaking head. This song really speaks truths for my situation. My interpretation is a relationship between two people are trying to work out a strained relationship. But when they try, there is an awkwardness between them hence the "Distance 'tween us grows" and "You can feel the fire around us".
