Lyric discussion by TheMoose 

Cover art for Top Notch lyrics by Manchester Orchestra

First time i heard it i thought it was about coming out and how there's a choice to come out of the closet or not and the two paths if they do or don't come out. And if the kid do make that leap and come out the they are afraid they might be killed and forgotten or just forgotten in general. And that coming out is a stain that won't dissolve and that once you've come out of the closet there's 'no way to fix it'.

After researching those belgium twins though it seems much more likely thats it.
