"Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer"
she's sober. she already ruined her life once, earlier, with drugs or alcohol. she's trying to take the high road. but she's alone. and she can't understand how, in trying to save her own life, she's set apart from life itself.
her best friend is gay - there's no hope of essential connection where she needs it.
and she has fallen in love with someone who doesn't know who she is.
this is a song about complete isolation
"Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer"
she's sober. she already ruined her life once, earlier, with drugs or alcohol. she's trying to take the high road. but she's alone. and she can't understand how, in trying to save her own life, she's set apart from life itself.
her best friend is gay - there's no hope of essential connection where she needs it.
and she has fallen in love with someone who doesn't know who she is.
she's a tragic figure. in the corner, over there.
