derek wrote this song around the time he knew it was time for him to leave Caedmon's Call. It is filled with images and words which seem to suggest that he was unhappy with the direction and goals of the band. He has since admitted that this song captures some emotions and feelings that he no longer has. It was his way of dealing with what he was going through. He played this song for select audiences months before the official announcement of his departure from Caedmon's was made, and remained aloof as to the meaning, so as not to let the news leak before its time. The 'you' in the song is derek, the 'she' and 'her' refers to the band.

I disagree. This song was from his second solo album, long after he left Caedmon's.
