This song has a personal meaning dor me:

I was in relationship a lot like this. To me, Dorian is a feeling vs a person. I loved this guy with every bell in my body but bit didn't work out, he moved on to someone else. And just like love, i felt the loss in every cell of my body. It was the worst emotional pain I've ever experienced. I was dreaming my dreams with this guy. And when he left without a trace or closure, I had this unbearable pain for a while.

I tried to get back out there in the dating life but i physically couldn't. I had no interest in love anymore and for a while, I thought I was asexual. I couldn't move on. Dorian wouldn't let me. When I started dating again, Dorian would show up and remind me of what I lost. She always had perfect timing. She wouldn't let me carry on. my thoughts:

"dorian, please go away"

"dorian please dont haunt me, please let me move on"

"will you haunt me forever? will i ever get peace?"

"will i ever love again and will you actually let me?"

It's a heartbreaking song. Whenever I hear it I start crying. Can't help it.
