This seems like another song about divorce. The anger is very appearent. It reminds me a lot of my parents divorce: "I'm not telling him nothing because he'll throw it back in my face later", and vice versa, all the while scheming to see what they can use against their partner in the next argument. Very ugly indeed. Another indication of the volitility expressed in "River on Fire". It's actually painful to listen to this song because it conjures up so many memories of the emotional brutality of divorce.
