With all the respect for Hillel Slovak i feel that the song shows a small sense of letting a girl go from his life i got this from this ''i'm part of you and you're part of me why did you go away '' and that he wants to resort to drugs because of his depression but thats only my way of thinkin about it, neways yeah it's a great song.
