Best Answer

The band have never made it clear what each song is actually about. Purgatory's lyrics don't particularly resemble the Roman Catholic concept of there being a place "between" heaven and hell (where people are temporarily punished or purified before ascending to heaven), rather it's just about the soul leaving the body. Examples of this are in the lines "My body tries to leave my soul" and "Over clouds my mind will fly". Drifter, on the other hand, appears to be about someone trying to take his significant other "away".
