Cover art for The Guilt Engine lyrics by Gatsbys American Dream

I think this song is basically about a guy who got involved with a girl, and he loved her. But he lost interest and cheated on her. After she found out, drama erupted between them, and he broke up with her. She was completely devastated, and he was fine with the break-up...but after a while, he started to miss her. And not only that, but the guilt of how he had hurt her was raining down on him and devouring him and he just wants to contact her, and make things right between them, and maybe build up a friendship if not a relationship.
