I feel like this song is a perfect description of impermanence in a relationship, the fact that many of us make poor decisions while in a relationship with someone who we truly care about.

It sounds almost as though he confessed to an affair and feels bad about it, like he wants to re-establish his commitment. "All my time is yours My twisted heart is yours The faithless shit is yours The shameless fits of love that only smother you for moments Until I fold them up and leave All yours"
