Lyric discussion by GenerationX 

Several lines in this song hint to Julie being an addict, particularly this verse:

"Julie say something Julie say you're sorry You're gonna get better You better not leave me here anyway"

"John" is professing his willingness to stick with her throughout her "falls" and is pleading with her to stay with him and get better as he hurts when she hurts. He explains that he has also fallen down for whatever reason on multiple occasions, so he understands that neither of them are perfect.

I really like his "I broke myself" line. He's acknowledging that at times he's fallen short, it was his own fault, and he's presumably learned from it.

An error occured.
