I don't know what 'obsessed" has to do with this song, but I am saddened that there is (was) just one comment. It seems the more honest the song, the fewer it receives. This song is about gripping fear, perhaps much like the fear someone who is afraid of heights feels as s/he walks across a bridge; an recovering alcohol feels when he stares down a bottle of booze; or the fear a woman who has experienced rape feels the first time she is alone again at night in her home. I'm not sure if the "breaking out tonight" means literally leaving the fear behind tonight, or if it means putting it to rest forever. I love the song's endingm "You're not hopeless. You're not worthless. You are loved." Such powerful words. Such an inspirational track. I had to look up this band as I had never before heard of it until someone introduced it to me. Good stuff!

Dang, I cannot type. That's what exhaustion and chemical fumes do to a person:) Still a wicked good song!

I think you may have hit the nail on the head! I liked your examples of differing fears.
