OK this song has a slightly different meaning for me.
It's a one of the most beautiful and unique love songs ever.
In a nutshell: anybody can love you when you're happy, but I'll love you when everything has gone wrong. I'll tell you the truth. I'll do what it takes to support you, even if it's hard for me.
Put another way, this song is like the marriage vows - for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health.
Who really loves you? The guy whose going to drive you home tonight.
I agree with your interpretation, Sonfoagunzel. To me, it's about unconditional love between two people, despite whatever problems one of them may be going through.

I really like Ziggy Marley's cover of this song, too! Definitely worth listening to.

@Sonofagunzel This is one of those songs where I want the song to mean something. In this case, I want your vision of the song to be true though I see things a bit differently (mine's a lot sadder). But that is the beauty of music, it can mean something different to each person who hears it.

@Sonofagunzel to me this song is about the end of a codependent relationship. One person has been carrying to brunt of the "work" a relationship entails while the other has been self-destructive, narcissistic, out of touch, or all three. The relationship is ending and the "worker" of the relationship is worried about who will take care of the other. It could be a friend, lover, relative, whatever. Codependecy takes many forms, but it\'s generally unsustainable and will break under its own weight. This song is very familiar, I\'ve been in this relationship a few times. ...

I feel the same, only he's trying to help her realize that depression is real and she can't live thinking anything wrong. Life is hard, who really cares to understand? When you're happy, your cool. But when you have some soft spots, no one wants to listen. Word of advice.

@Sonofagunzel I agree. Idk how but this song became our song for my husband and I since we started dating in 2010. Specifically the version by Deftones. It’s hauntingly beautiful and for us represents being there for each other when it matters the most.
