Love this song. Definitely a song about how adulthood takes the joys out of life, and the idea of past mistakes lingering- 'poisoning' every room in the house. As the negative memories of the area build, there's nowhere left to go for peace. I know some people think those few lines are dramatic, but I quite like them.
I try and walk in a straight line
An imitation of dignity
From despair to where
From despair to where
^ Very depressing, but I think it sums up well how Richey felt at the time. Like what was left of him was this stumbling shell, and he was trying to pretend everything was still going ok.
