my whole interpretation is that in the case, Chris is/was with somebody whom he fully submitted himself to physically and emotionally. he gave everything he could but it wasn't acknowledged or appreciated, but yet again all he knew was that person because that's what he dedicated himself and all his thoughts/emotions to. something might have happened that proved her unloyalty, or how he was putting in more than her etc. he know's he's been misused but also knows that there's no way he could let go of her. u do think the 'undress your body' etc IS in a literal sense because she just has sex with him whereas he feels more. this scenario is justified from contemptress - "I can't stop crawling to your doorstep every time you beckon". "fuck the pain away" they literally are fucking the pain away. they have sex but that's all that is between them now since the relationship is ruined. he's holding on to her by the physical relationship but is completely aware that it's unhealthy. he hates her and the situation but knows that he somehow, for whatever reason still loves her. the sex aspect is in a way his release of emotions. "put all of your pride all your guilt into me" everything they do wrong or all their awful feelings go into that """passionate""" moment that they just keep waiting and moping around for. they're numb to what's going on, because he knows all he wants is her and that's the only and easiest way he can get her. in a way, their sex is the only stable thing about them and they have comfort in it because he loves her lingrence, but they lowkey hate eachother. and it's really sad. this is the only song that makes me cry every single time I hear it.
