"I knew you like I knew myself"

Let that sink in, in context. That's pretty powerful. The camaraderie of a relationship, of confusion, two people finding themselves and the world together. It's an ages old theme; here it plays perfectly.

He has this relationship, but in the end he just wants to be lost alone, sinking with the ship. It's accepting defeat, but in a beautiful way, understanding that depression is part of life and part of art.
