Reminds me of Jefferson Airplane's Plastic Fantastic Lover. She is a self-consumed activist, who he's attracted to, but he's not really into her causes, just her. He puts on an act, just to be with her. Plastic Mylar is him, shiny and just a reflection of her and he feels somewhat artificial. He's not even sure just what her causes really are, they are just a motion-ment, i.e. endless activity. In fact, he's jealous of her commitment and knows he can never meet her expectations, but he wishes he could. He wishes she could save his life (from irrelevance?). He wishes he could really get to know her as a person, not just her facade as a activist. He fears he is too shallow for her.
