Basically what it comes down to is we desperately hope that Yang will die and this song, at least in parallel, can be about her, because otherwise it wasn't written very well. You've got a song about all this angst and anguish over events not even relevant to present-day character development and totally disconected from the protagonist as is. It's not even believable as Ruby. Where are these nightmares the song speaks of? How does "nothing ever take the place" of the fallen loved one if she does actually get over it before the story ever begins? Either this song has more, deeper meaning than just its overt Ruby/Summer denotation or it's a terrible fit for the character. If it is only what it appears to be than it describes a spiritual journey that doesn't happen in canon.
