This song, in my opinion, is definitely about the mania of bipolar disorder. She has another song on this album called "lithium", a drug to treat bipolar, which is why I can be so confident this is what it's about. I also deal with bipolar myself, so I can relate.
When you're manic, you're not rational, but you think that EVERYTHING is better. You think that situations are different than they are and that EVERYTHING will work out the way you want it to. (Cloud nine).
"If I fall and all is lost no light to lead the way" When you "fall" or go into the depression from mania, not only do you realize that the things you thought were okay in mania are not, but it's the other extreme. EVERYTHING'S WRONG. Nothing will work out. Thus, all is lost.
"Remember that all alone is where I belong". It's the most lonely feeling because you realize at some point that the truth gets swallowed up in the mania and depression.
Also "I don't want to touch the sky I just want to feel that high". She realizes the mania is a lie, but the feeling is addictive.
Hope this helps. :)
Thank you so much. I have Bipolar myself so this song speaks so much to me.
But are you sure that Amy has it? I know that Ben Moody has it but i never heard that Amy had it
