To me this song is really hard to get your head around - Idlewild seem to make their meaings so subtle but yet so clever and obvious if you catch onto it.

I'm not sure if I have - I think this song is about the breakdown of communication between a couple...One tries their best to understand the other; "It's always 3am in your world, so i'm drinking this as if i hadn't slept." But their relationship remains superficial and kind of pointless, despite any efforts to improve it.
