Cover art for Jackie lyrics by Placebo

i think it might be about this girl who died waiting on her lover to return from being out at sea, he died out there and she still waits for him to come and take her away to heaven i suppose :S idk if thats right just a guess coz it says:
now i've been dead for twenty years. i suppose that could be metaphorical meaning his absence has left her kind of dead inside for twenty years while she refused to believe that he wasnt coming back.
