Cover art for Rock Bottom Riser lyrics by Smog

Does this remind anyone else of Déagol from Lord of the Rings? Just the ring part. I don't actually think that's what it's about but I think it's kinda funny how much it reminds me of it. Anyway, I do think this song is about recovery with the help of your family. Not sure if it's about drugs or having your heart broken, but I think that's open to interpretation.
