Cover art for Lapse lyrics by Envy on the Coast

i definetly think this song is about herion, and i agree with lissyish703 that its about a relationship but not that a guys is trying to win a girl back but that two people that were truly in love were broken up by a heroin addiction and now the girl has moved on and married someone else, and she realizes that the child she has should have been her first loves child

the whole begining seems to be a realization that humans are not always stronger than the things we put into our bodies ... drugs for example

the line "i know you know how it feels to make a clean break" suggests that the girl was also at one time addicted to heroin, but made it through
