Cover art for Hello, It's Late lyrics by Stone Temple Pilots

To me this song is Scott's shocking epiphany of a realization that he is married. It was just a relationship "just a game that we used to play" but it turned into something that can't be erased. the title "hello, it's late" is reminiscent of a married couple, single people usually live alone and are alone when it's late.
