Sounds like its describing a dream, Becky is imagined and not real. At the end he has one of those falling feelings that jolts you out of the dream.

'Becky' is dead as the result of a traffic accident. The singer is alive and filled with conflicting emotions about living and dying... Remembering and forgetting. The conflict is internal but set in a backdrop of nightlife and bar culture. Society expects a bereaved person to 'move on.'

It is said that we all have three lives - a public life, a private life and a secret life. The richness of this song is that it tears up the boundaries between these.
