The song lyrics tell the story of a castaway who has been pulled off course in life and set adrift. He reflects on how his life has changed and the pain he may have caused. He feels lost without direction and struggles to forgive himself for past mistakes when it is himself that he cannot forgive. The lyrics describe his drifting through a foggy life, seeking something outside of its hell but finding only shallow fulfillment as he slips further into the shadows.
