Haunting and Beautiful. I agree with daveydaveson. This song is too great to be compared with that mass mediocre fad.
I also agree that there are dark underlying themes. From the very beginning of the song when she admits she fell in love, it isn't a happy go-lucky love. It has her screaming, and she loses something critical (eyesight to represent something very important). The story begins and ends in darkness, and she seems to be allured by her new world as well as afraid ("No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight" <- she's trying to describe her surreal situation) While she plans ways to maybe get away from that confusing love (creating the map)-at least in the world of the song- she never does. There's something magnetic that keeps her there.
That's what I gleaned from it.
