"So while I'm turning in my sheets
And once again I cannot sleep
Walk out the door and up the street
Look at the stars beneath my feet
Remember rights that I did wrong
So here I go"
This person cannot sleep, again. They are considering suicide ("stars beneath my feet") because this person feels that they messed up so many times in life. (Probably in a relationship)
"There is no place I cannot go
My mind is muddy but
My heart is heavy does it show
I lose the track that loses me
So here I go"
This person feels that once they are dead, that they can go anywhere ("there is no place I cannot go"). This person is very confused, but even in their confusion they know in their heart that something is not right.
"And so I sent some men to fight
And one came back at dead of night
Said he'd seen my enemy
Said he looked just like me
So I set out to cut myself
And here I go"
He has tried to figure out what was wrong and then discovered that he is the perosn that he is fighting against, the cause of his problems. Wanting to destroy his "enemy," he thinks that he should cut himself.
"I’m not calling for a second chance
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don’t give me choice
Cause I'll just make the same mistake again"
This person really wants things to be right again and he is desperate. He wants a reason to go on, not choices because he messes them up.
"And maybe someday we will meet
And maybe talk but not just speak
Dont buy the promises cause
There are no promises I keep
And my reflection troubles me
So here I go"
He thinks that someday when he has been dead and years later when she dies, they will meet again and really speak to one another. He can't promise this. He hates himself.
He is VERY depressed and in his mind, suicide is the only way to end his suffering. It is not. If you feel like you want to kill yourself, talk to someone. Speak in confidence or with someone close to you. Suicide is not the answer.
I think that this is a song about him losing his mind after a bad relationship. He is very depressed and is going to kill himself.
