To me this song is talking about a relationship that ended for the singer, that he didn't want to end.
"it’s the colorless picture
in a heart shaped frame
the silhouette of a dough eyed girl
who at one point had a name"
The singer picks up a photograph of his ex and remembers how it used to be and that once meant somethign to him.
"but I couldn’t put it down
no I couldn’t put it down"
He dosn't want to stop remembering.
"brush away all the memories
keep the cries curbside
i’ll be ashing on the images
that have all been caught inside"
Here he's saying that he wants to burn all the images of them and along with the memories that are held inside so he could move on perhaps.
"but i couldn’t put it down
no i couldn’t put it down
no i couldn’t put it down"
But again he can't just forget her.
"let’s break the window panes
and separate the walls from all the nails
cuz maybe if we’re loud we’ll stay alive
while everybody wants to join the fight
but even if we barricade the door and seal it with the
blood found on the floor
we’re always going to cross the finish line
while everybody wants to run and hide
but now it’s too late"
Not every song is about a relationship. Sometimes ppl sing about something else - this song is about fighting for something you believe in, in a world that is overrun by comformity.
