I don't know, but I read somewhere that Hell wrote this about a French girl called Lizzy he knew. I think she was a poet too. I also thought that this was about someone from the past, until I read that. But I agree, yes, that she has become a fantasy. I think maybe he's trying to say that this world wasn't made for people like them, they couldn't really be happy in such a mixed up place. It isn't included in the lyrics here, but he says at the end of it "I could live with you in another world/Not this one." I just love the word imagery in this song, it reminds me of Dylan Thomas. The coughing at the end is pretty interesting, too. Very authentic.
