Funny how everyone maps it to be Pete singing to a woman, or someone he was sexually involved with...i always took it more in a male communication way. As in, a friend, buddy, someone he cared for- who is bogged down, lost, all fucked up (not necessarily addiction issues, but definitely using something to numb out). Perhaps someone else in his circle of friends from a similar background, or just experiencing new found "celebrity" in whatever dose or way. Someone struggling with the issues of identity that the false idolatry and worship of celebritydom brings about...but, that is just my take on it, sitting here listening to the album again. Can't wait for Back & Fourth release! YES
