I still think this song is about suicide or more poetically the parallel between giving up on a relationship and giving up on life. The allusion to shroud reminds me of the concept of the mortal coil or the funeral shroud. That is why I don't think it is just about a failing relationship. The maddening shroud makes me think of how life can envelope you with its insanity. Her statements like "sometimes i feel my life's in vain
maybe its time for me to pack it in
maybe its time for me to jack it in
maybe its time for me to halt"
Sound much more fatalistic yjan a failing rlationship.
