In the first lyrics are about her leaving him and him telling her that she needs see and know some things before she walks out of his life.
The Chorus is the main point of the song, their relationship is so rocky that they can't tell wether they are getting better or worse with each other. He just wants to find out wether them getting together was worth the time, or if it was just a plagueing curse on him. He wants to make it work and see this through hence why, "but I've got to know". The fact that everyone in their life is telling them they can't make it makes him want to see this whole thing through regardless. All through his vain attempts to make it work he keeps asking himself and her "Is it better now?" as he really can't see this from his own perspective at the time.
The last part of "talk too much too little too late" Is the fact that she obviously says the things needed to be said at a time when the meaning of the words is lost after the event. It causes him to be confused and can't figure out the situation.
The song is basically about the downfall of a relationship (more specifically the point in it right before it goes downhill and ends bitterly) and the vain attempts to make things work out of the residual feelings one or both parties may have. [/end 2 cents]
