@SunPisT! & a few others pretty much got it right IMO. At that point (at the "end chapter" of a relationship - what's basically left is the chemicals between us (which may've been what brought them together to begin with - but wasn't enough to sustain it indefinitely).

Whether "the chemicals" refers to the basic hormonal signals that message & attract other mammals, or perhaps even those other prolific "chemicals" (such as "party favors") that also often act to (initially anyway) bring two humans together.

Often "animal" attraction - or common substance use/abuse as a bond between 2 people - isn't quite strong enough to keep people together forever. Not an expert (but am well experienced at least) - just a hopeless Gemini offering dual observational possibilities

My Opinion

Either way - I always loved this track, really good
