Lyric discussion by TheGreatSongTraveler 

I personally am of a different opinion about this song. I don’t feel that the relationship is at rock bottom at all, I feel that this couple in the song has collectively faced some kind of tragic unforeseen circumstance and have been brow beaten by life, and the tone of the song is quite different than the lyrics might suggest if they were read absent the cords. I feel that there’s an overwhelming sense of “F it, life may suck at the moment for us both honey, but we’re about to make a serious comeback!” And you can sense that this man is going to make sure this sinking ship is fully righted. Their relationship is strong, they’re just victims of life. Of hardship and adversity. But they’re on their way back.
