A mostly simple song, but one that does an incredible job of communicating deep, all-encompassing alienation. It's a song that could only be sung by someone who had ceased to believe in anything, and now he has to get away from the last person he is connected to, because everything has gone up in smoke, and he has even run out of love in his soul, and doesn't even believe it exists in her anymore. You have to wonder if the question "Ain't it good to be alive?" is meant to be sarcastic and ironic. An incredibly eloquent communication of sadness and disillusionment.
