Personally,I think this song is written about their ex-drummer Steve Hewiit.
It's clear that Brian and Steve are not in a good relationship.There was a conflict between them,which made him leave the band.These lyrics suggest it to me:"you are getting in the way","Dream brother,my killer,my lover"..regretting the past.
"I won't stop until I'm done" and "I am the bones you couldn't break" tells that his leaving won't stop them and they'll keep on making great music even without him.
Also "I'll battle for the Sun"..Sun,it's has an indirect meaning.In my opinion with "Sun" they mean success and worldwide recognition.Yees,Placebo are famous,but we have to admit they are an underrated band,they deserve more...
That's my interpretation.This song proved how talented is Brian Molko not only as a musician but as a songwriter too.So deep meanings in every single song by Placebo,it's so cool you can find your own meaning of his words..<3
I love this song.I can't stop listening to it since i heard it.Pure perfection!
