i beleive this song is about coming out of an abusive relationship, "i bet a lot of me was lost" abusive relationships can make people scared to express opinion or do anything without being told to do first "you are surrounding all my surroundings" the abuser often takes up most of your life and becomes the only thing you can think about "twisting the kaleidascope behind both my eyes" it also changes how you see yourself and things around you "and I'll be holding onto you" holding onto the good person they were when the relationship started "tie a noose around your mind loose enough to breathe fine" when the abuse comes in it starts gradually so the person won't just leave "this aint a noose this is a leash and i've got news for you, you must obey me" abusive relations slowly kill a person from the inside out, but they often don't see that it was killing them until they're out, they're convinced the person is a bit controlling, not killing them
