These Things Happen Lyrics
Your hands were cold and your eyes were wide as you laid there helpless on your side and I don’t think I could ever feel alright again in this hotel bathroom
Your dress was torn and your fingers froze on a filthy floor in your fancy clothes I can hear the sirens getting closer now in this hotel bathroom
Now as I’m flying in circles above your pretty little head in heat my mouth starts to water your pace slows as the wind blows
Your hands were cold and my motives vain as a rusted spike stood still in your veins it would take forever to explain the stains on this plain white t-shirt
I never hoped that this would come true you said you’d die for me I said I’d die for you what the hell do you think that you are trying to prove in this hotel bathroom
Now as I’m swimming in circles below your pretty dangling feet drawn to the red in the water your pace slows as the blood flows
Now as I’m flying in circles above your pretty little head in heat my mouth starts to water

I think this is obviously about a girl committing suicide. I think she was trying to prove to him how much she loved him judging by the line "You said you'd die for me, i said i'd die for you, what the hell did you think were you trying to prove in this hotel bathroom". I think that's basically it... suicide, and he's writing about it.
