It's about a guy that goes to see a friend of his who can be really inspiring or totally destructive. She knows how to tap into his weaknesses and excesses in a way that could get seriously nasty for him for no reason. He goes there to get away from real life, which is also pretty rotten. He says, "You think it's dark outside? It's often worse in here". He's scared about how it might go this time, making sure he has a bit Dutch Courage before he begins. The person he meets is described in the next track on the album.
