Patty has a friend who struggles with her sexuality, and is also religious.
She was told that getting married to a man would make her straight, and it didn't.
On top of it, now she's a mother.
As a Christian who loves D4, this is one of the most important/relatable songs they've ever written to me. Religious leaders and institutions pushing people into marriages they're not ready for is something I've witnessed first hand, as well as the terrible act of trying to "fix" homosexuals into being straight, like it's a switch they can turn on and off.
@Robolitious I think you nailed it dude. This is definitely a song about a single parent who is obviously gay but grew up in a religious household that told them they were wrong for feeling this way which is the reason they became pregnant in the first place.
