My guess about this song deals with the theme of recovery. For someone who was once dependant on anything, there is a period in which one must re-discover themselves before rehabilitation can occur. Re-discovering yourself is like looking into a mirror and seeing a stranger. You are forced to face and ultimately overcome your demons and/or ghosts from your past as indicated in the lyrics: shy away shy away phantom run away terrified child my favorite line in the song is the line "what am to do with all this silence". If you have ever recovered from an addiction, your first moments of sobriety or moments of clarity makes you realize the euphoria, elation and "false identity" that you created through using is now gone and all you are left with is silence and personal reflection.

Like most of the album, this songs about drugs/addiction. In this case a drug dealer. The Stranger offers "Candy" some take the bait, some don't.
