Song Description
This is a synth-rock song full of big guitars and wild synths. It is mid-tempo with a driving rock beat. The subject matter is a man reflecting upon his current situation which is rather poor, and reconciling that better days lie ahead, and that even now, his situation is better than before he had his lover.

Lyrics
I never thought it?d get to me, but now I feel as though it has.
When all the things that I?ve been reaching for fall down just beyond my grasp.
I think it?s overtaking all of me but then I feel your touch upon my hand.
Chorus:
I know we?ll see those better days, the kind we?re dreaming of.
These days, they are not half as bad as when I never knew you,
Before I ever knew you, my love.
I always thought that I could handle this but now, I feel I?ve lost control.
Consumed by what can never satisfy at last, the fire burning in my soul.
The world around is full of emptiness but now into your eyes I understand.
