no comments yet?! I think this song is simply about a girl he hasn't seen in a while.. probably an ex or someone he loved because she has what he wants, and maybe she left him? but the morbidness of some of the words could also portray how she died and he misses her? maybe I'm thinking too far into it, but I love this song and dave, he's such a story teller in his incredible lyrics :)

I have heard it is based on the tragic murders of several women in Washington about a decade ago. The women were drowned in a lake. Perhaps it is Dave's metaphor for loving someone so much that it makes us do the craziest things; things that cannot be explain. Love, it makes you do some messed up things. and even though what we do cannot be taken back we still return and dwell on our actions; replaying the events over and over again, trying to find some sort of validation.....
