I have always felt that the lyrics of A Promise symbolize the internal struggle of two opposing forces contradicting the structurte of the id as it comes to deal with the super ego. The friction that results and the symbolism of being all dressed up show an intnese inertia that develops when a plethora of dream imagery into doubt, yet structure of the ego.

There are a few lines about Pete in that song........other than that, who the hell knows. Mac was his best when the lyrics were weird, ambiguous, and poetic. I doubt he knows himself.
