Glad to see theres lots of love for Billy Strings . Do u think this one is about heroin ?
Mistakes in live/ not emotionally/ spiritually there, i think your interpration fits best.Sounds to me that It’s about a girlfriend who exited but never left the stage due to an addiction and effect this had on Strings. Strings then ends up a mess later with substance issues of his own .
My take is it’s about never being able to have a love because one or the other was space cadetted and not spiritually or emotionally there due to substance abuse.
Here is another take
