This song screams depression, the word umbra can mean shadow world, a region of shadow, many things, but always shadow is the common factor. The singer is confused and just feels like giving up, lyrics such as "No one knows why, no one can forgive, Second thought, why do I care" and "Hey, it's nothing that you'd understand" and talk about sleeping till sober again. Constant contradictory and negative lyrics imply that the singer doesn't believe anything is working and this is shown again by the lyrics "And just when I think I've worked it out, These pieces move and I'm back to the start"
