I think this song is about a woman whos relationship failed with the love of her life. She is incredibly broken still, years later. The song resonates with the feeling of someone who\'s flung themselves out into the dating world over and over and been left glaring disappointed. She keeps hearing his voice in the back of her head, almost like being chased by a ghost. Whatever happened to make them end has made her feel shameful. I don\'t think it\'s common cheating. Maybe someone spread rumours that ended it. Regardless she\'s wearing the stain. Her game was that she never loved any man in her relationships since and they didn\'t love her either. Hence "beaten by the hand of my own game". She is after repreive. A break. For the longing to go. For the self punishment to go. The rain washes everything clean. "Come take my hand" verse is about her love. Come back. Walk with me, forget what you think you know about me.\nIt\'s actually a very sad song.
