This is a great, underrated Sabbath song. Awesome drumbeat and guitar riff.
Im guessing its about a relationship problem. It could also be talking to God, and its about suicide,or a passive wish for death, and losing faith.
Also, i thought the last verse is "this time im going to have the star part"- listen to it, maybe some Crowleyesque allusion.
The last verse definitely does not say depart. Although it makes sense too. I listened to it like ten times and "the star part" does seem to fit best. It also sounds like he's saying "so this time I'm going to have to start pot" which seems quite possible knowing the topics of Sabbath's songs a lot of the time. I also "started pot" when my girl left me, but now I am much better without her.. hah
