| This song so obviously involves a child (boy/girl) that was brought into the world of child sexual abuse at a young age. and then during this. she some how during one of these sessions god fatially brutilised, most likly died. to this child. sex was an outlet. or all the child knew. "place to make things ok" could be putting something into the sexual organ. it does release brain chemicals of happieness during that act. but in summery. its all about sexual abuse on children. | |

| Good song, excellent instument playing (all instruments). It seems like it's about looking back at some good/safe times, because they say "that place you would go to take the pain away" and "that place you would go to make it all okay". It's kind of about finding you're "happy place", the meaning is kind of hard to describe but I basically know it. | |

| i think it's about a child's happy place where he or she feels safe. they go there to feel better. then life takes its course and robs them of it. and it's missing ur happy place. | |

| I think it's about a stalker that goes after little kids. Skrying I think is looking at someone and them not being aware, its a fantasy term. Maybe more of a parent that does it to their children, since they have the best access to watch a kid in their bedrooms. During their harassment, the child would go to their happy place, whatever it is in their imagination, i.e. - a fort you could only enter with a "secret knock" or that they'd have other kids pay a nickel to enter. Just my thoughts. | |

| I agree with StealMyCan, I'm pretty sure it's about sex. From what I've found skrying is some sort of ritual or something to get rid of 'demons' and depression or some crap like that. I think the song is about how sex was his way of skrying. If you listen to the lyrics closely a lot actually relate to sex in a hidden way. | |
