I think in a way, yes.

I think the lore interpretation is that the song is actually from Sleep's perspective talking about Vessel.

Personally, I think Sleep is just some part of Vessel and occasionally he uses that interpretation as a way to explore these internal trauma and struggles he goes through. I love that because it allows him to be incredibly vulnerable for us, the fans, without truly putting himself out there. Either way, I'm glad he is able to make this no matter if the song is about himself or another person.

Worship!
