George found a certain beauty in moments like these. Watching you interact with his family while gathered around the table for supper was something he hadn't thought he'd find so much joy in. The soft clinking of knives and forks as everyone ate their meal, the occasional shuffling of chairs, the idle chatter. He almost felt choked up being a part of it. So simple and yet so fulfilling. He couldn't help the feeling of pride that swelled in his chest as he looked at you. He wondered what he did in his past life to be as lucky as he is. To call you his was no short of a blessing. He can't quite find the words to tell you that just yet. For now, he's happy to just sit quietly and enjoy the scene.

I think it relates to how Ivan would reflect on himself and Till's relationship in this song, if that is what it will be about. Much like a bug/parasite that lives and thrives at the expense of others, Ivan thinks that he is a troublesome, hollow existence. Thinks that because he takes and takes any attention Till would give him, whether bad or good, and that he primarily relies on Till's presence to survive, so much so that he couldn't live with the prospect that he'd lose him, he was acting inherently selfish, greedy. Ivan doesn't desire Till because he feels entitled to him; wanting is a selfish privilege he cannot readily afford to consider like others, such a privilege doesn't belong to a person like him. Till is a person in his life that he doesn't mind following in the background or mind being given whatever rations of what Till wants to give him, because this was always the role he was meant to play

Like a parasitic dynamic, Ivan didn't think Till benefited from their relationship, probably didn't even consider if Till saw them as anything, for that matter. (even though it's apparent that was because he misunderstood Till and himself, or what their relationship looked like). Ivan accepts the situation, yet incessantly takes whatever he can (like latching onto Till and passively feeding off of him) while "knowing" Till didn't care about him, while still desiring something more, In this way I also think the song might highlight the way Ivan both wanted to occupy a space in Till's mind, wanted to be important to him yet thought he wasn't and resolutely accepted it because he perceived himself as more of a burden.
