This song is about a man returning home from war. He finds out that his girlfriend, whom he was about to marry before the war, has died from cancer. She was the only thing he had left, and he was looking forward to starting a new life with her. Now he sits in a small apartment in "The 10 House City", staring at the wall, talking to himself, and trying to kill himself with booze at The Bar across the street.
