Wow, most of you all missed the whole theme of this one.
The first part of the song, is the "Hell Below"
It is the pain he feels seeing his girl with another guy. Note the angst and fast paced anger of the first part.
Then, the second part of the song is the "Stars Above" portion. He is saying, now that he has gotten over her, there isnt anything else that is gonna hurt him in this life. He really is over here. "I close my eyes, and I can't see your face...." and "I slip away, happy as a clam"
Its about the initial pain and the following relief you get from ending a shitty relationship.
