The song is about a man who, after the death of his girlfriend, turns to religion "as a last resort to keep himself alive. To keep him from suicide." Kurt said that the story was fictional, but based off of past relationships as well. Lithium is a drug that is used as a mood stabilizer for Bipolar disorder, so the title works with the story in the song.
