Benzodiazepine_Dave, "Bliss" is actually about her relationship with her father. But I do believe this is about her & Trent, I mean "pretty hate machine" is a pretty obvious hint. She had a fling with him, and this is about a fling. Look at the first comment's quotes: "He was a lite sneeze, and not the flu. Guys would like to think they're the flu, but sometimes they're just a 'h'achoo'" She's saying, he infected her, but not for long. It's about thinking a relationship was much more than it actually was. It wasn't a relationship ("the flu") it was a fling, a "lite sneeze". Sounds like she's kind of sad of the fact it was just a lite sneeze, quite bitter, she might have hoped/thought it was more but now it's over she can see it for what it really was: "Didn't know our love was so small, couldn't stand at all..." etc. Amazing, amazing song. The way she sings it, with such sorrowful passion...stunning.
