i'm not very good at interpreting songs, but i know that this album is basically a screenplay for a movie that steven wilson wanted to make.
from what i've read Deadwing is a ghost story. This man (that this song is about) is being haunted by a woman who was murdered. It is said that the man could have been anyone, but was most likely either her lover, her murderer, or both. There are lots of different ways to interpret who the man was, like he could have loved her, than ended up hating her, then took revenge on her, and now is haunted by her. Another one (my favorite so far) is that he has schitzophrenia and one personalilty loved her, one killed her and now he is livig a different persona and does not know why he is being haunted.
Anyways not much detail has been given out because Steve didn't want to spoil anything if the movie actually does come out someday.
Oh and that inscestuous twist that Tbrings suggested is really interesting, never thought of that.
Schizophrenia is not what you described. You are thinking of Multiple-Personality Disorder. I forget the technical name, but that is what you are thinking of.

Schizophrenia was, for decades, thought to be the same thing as Multiple-Personality Disorder, as was, on occasion, bipolar disorder. Over the years, they have become more defined, but some people still use Schizophrenia as a word for MPD.
