just read this on Song Meanings, and I love it.

“when we were made we were set apart” is a reference to Plato’s Symposium, where the mention of the Classical Soulmate Theory was born. the story is as such:

long ago, humans were actually two people combined at the spine. they had 8 limbs, and two faces on either side, both unaware of the other. zeus feared their growning power and split them in two. now every human searches the globe trying to find their other half.
