Lots of accurate descriptions below. Just as an aside I wanted to point out it's very well documented BOTH Layne and his girlfriend Demri cheated on each other. He, being on the road etc etc. And she was notoriously 'sexual'. And good for her. As some have suggested, I don't think there's connotations of abuse here, they both loved each other dearly by all accounts and were meant to be together. But both cheated. Creating the climate for this very song. To my mind, one of the most amazing displays of Layne's vocal ability and the sheer feeling behind the words he penned and the quality of his voice in this song....Truly amazing talent
