Lyric discussion by Chanticleer 

According to Davey Havok, "decemberunderground is a time and a place. It is where the cold can huddle together in darkness and isolation. It is a community of those detached and disillusioned who flee to love, like winter, in the recesses below the rest of the world."

The reason it was released in the summer, is probably because listening to it is like escaping from the illusion of summer's warmth and happiness, because after, it slowly dies and transition to Fall is made, and then Winter. Kind of like an escape, like Davey said.

And this is an amazing song. The exact meaning, like all of the songs, revolves around the life and death of romance, and romantic feelings.

Davey's quote about the album kind of fits in with the idea about this being a gay/bi song. The queer community are not accepted in many parts of the worl, and the flee below the earth where they can love without being judged.
