I think this song is all about trying to get together with somebody. But each time he gets close, something happens and he is pushed away again - its like a constant game "this is not a new game, so don't think that you know", he is afraid to look within as he knows the truth, nothing will ever happen "scare to open up these eyes to see just what's inside" - He KNOWS what is inside. By the end of the song he eventually he gets very close and asks for her to "promise me you will not ever leave", but it happens again and he is pushed away. She cant see what she is doing to him "can you see these bloodshot eyes". By now, his "strength is failing" and the relationship has been left scarred "It just doesn't feel the same".
