I don't think that's the line he's referring to. That line is
key to the song anyway. I mean, it's meant to be a "positive" song
about a friend(or maybe someone closer than that) getting out from under
the hand(s) of an abusive relationship.
...and am I the only one who still doesn't like the remake of
"Astronomy" on _Imaginos_? *gak* I shut off the CD player during it
the first time it was playing.
