I believe what ever its about it deals with heartbreak, good and bad old memories, admiration and longing.
"Ask me to sin, Ask me to sin in red."
that line really comes to as if he would do anything to stay with them.
"I didn't go to see the city
I went to see it around you
We can laugh in hell together
The devil will find you too"
That verse kinda show me that that he must have really longed and admired the person.
Also I'm see it as the "good old friends" is probably the partners evil side, "He walked right passed."
So to me it seems about Chris loving, admiring, and full-heartedly caring about his partner and longing for the old partner's self back. Saying "We can work it all out" but knowing it won't work. ("I'll never ask,I'll never ask again.")
...................... But thats just my oppinion:D
I just found Chris Garneau and....... I LOVE HIM! And Lynniecakes I totally see how you can compare him to Sufjan! They're both BEAUTIFUL, deep artists.
I can really see it as all sides of the story (drug and a relationship). Its has a lot of deep meaning to it, but you have to see that it could be really about non of those!:D
And a thing I love about Chris Garneau and Sufjan Steven without seeing the lyrics you can already feel what their singing about.
