The obvious heart has come to collect
'Cause it tore apart like a tortured insect
The obvious heart waits here to heal
And balances out a subtle reveal
'Cause there's a remedy close
In a familiar dose
This bitter pill to swallow
Is last in the bottle tonight
You're empty it's alright
And full of yourself
No need to explain
To anyone else
Broken in time
Taken what's left
No need to deny
The cause or effect
This heart is not a broken one
But where have all the colors gone
It's still among the lucky ones
This heart is not a broken one
But where have all the colors gone
You're still among the lucky ones
And burning longer than the sun
'Cause there's a remedy close
In a familiar dose
Now you can find out who knows
Soaking the truth that she says
In taken chances
'Cause it tore apart like a tortured insect
The obvious heart waits here to heal
And balances out a subtle reveal
'Cause there's a remedy close
In a familiar dose
This bitter pill to swallow
Is last in the bottle tonight
You're empty it's alright
And full of yourself
No need to explain
To anyone else
Broken in time
Taken what's left
No need to deny
The cause or effect
This heart is not a broken one
But where have all the colors gone
It's still among the lucky ones
This heart is not a broken one
But where have all the colors gone
You're still among the lucky ones
And burning longer than the sun
'Cause there's a remedy close
In a familiar dose
Now you can find out who knows
Soaking the truth that she says
In taken chances

i take this song to be about a person who is longing to be with someone without noticing that there is someone else ("the obvious heart") that they've known for a long time ("there's a remedy close, in a familiar dose") who is really what they need. but the person is so caught up in their feelings ("so full of yourself") that nothing else registers, even the fact that being without the person they're longing for isn't as bad as they make it out to be ("this heart is not a broken one")
@salsashark2004 It's a really good song. I agree with you on the meaning of the song.
I think this song is about drugs.
