Motion City Soundtrack - You Hold Me Down Lyrics Meaning

Basically the most tragic song ever written.

The singer finds a letter, which is the whole song, minus the first line. His girl is madly in love with him (and presumably he with her), but she has to break up with him, because his drug use is holding her down. you can tell she really doesn't want to, and we can only assume that he didn't want to either, or else he wouldn't be singing about it. And, clearly, she doesn't know how to tell him. (p.s., she eventually decides on a letter.)

I like to think that as the story continues after the song, he manages to kick the habit and they get back together and live happily ever after. :)
