| Its being about him being abandoned by a girl but denying it hard, still thinking about their life in the future. He is loosing his mind, as in fever. The train can be many things, but it ain't out of the question that it can be seen as a mean of suicide. | |

| Vigilant/The Knave - Eldritch studied in Leeds - northern england, some of my freinds from that area say "while" ti mean "until". A truly remarkable song full of emotion - the lyrics are poetic, and the way they are sung takes them to another level. For me - i think its about the anguish felt in his volatile relationship. "caught up on this line again" - sounds like he has been "there" before, devastating pain after a argument/break up. I wonder if the line is a reference to two things - this as well - he used "line" to refer to drugs in songs like 1959 and Amphetamine Logic ? | |

| Love the song, not really sure what it means, however the line "Lipstick on my cigarrette" appears in Driven Like the Snow as well. | |
