How do you interpret the meaning of this song?

The given meaning of this song

"The period of twilight is known as a transitory state or a ‘liminal space’, as it is not quite night or day, and therefore is often representative of an individual feeling ‘stuck’. The fact that the persona in the song appears to be in a love triangle connects to this, as they are trapped between the feelings of their lover and their lover’s lover."

Extra exercise

Pick an English song (has to be fully English, no combination of languages) and transcribe it. Try to write down it's lyrics by just listening to it. Once you're done, interpret the song's meaning.
