I was nowhere near ready when all it ended
So I hoped we could find a new day, cannot live without you
You gave me the chance, time and again in vain
Now my feelings for you
Every tear, every smile, paid in full
Wrecked the chain, but no longer can I take the pain
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you
Needed to be strong, yet I was always too weak
So again only blamed myself for this state we are in
I will take what you have for me now, it's not too late
Did you change? I did too
Love can grow from the last grain
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you
I need you less and less every day
Fix this moral decay
Yet I've grown to love you even more
My fault that you then turned another cheek
You mouth the words, you're not ready to speak
You're scared of me, although I never had a clue
That I'd become so much stronger than you
I will take what you have for me now if it's not too late
If you like I will leave, I will not miss the last train again
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you
It's hard for me to love your face right now
I'm waiting, hating, needing, being me
I need you less and less
And every day leads us farther away
From that moment
It's hard for me to hate myself right now
Finally I'm understanding me
One day we may have whole new me's and you's
But first I need to learn to love me too
So I hoped we could find a new day, cannot live without you
You gave me the chance, time and again in vain
Now my feelings for you
Every tear, every smile, paid in full
Wrecked the chain, but no longer can I take the pain
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you
Needed to be strong, yet I was always too weak
So again only blamed myself for this state we are in
I will take what you have for me now, it's not too late
Did you change? I did too
Love can grow from the last grain
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you
I need you less and less every day
Fix this moral decay
Yet I've grown to love you even more
My fault that you then turned another cheek
You mouth the words, you're not ready to speak
You're scared of me, although I never had a clue
That I'd become so much stronger than you
I will take what you have for me now if it's not too late
If you like I will leave, I will not miss the last train again
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you
It's hard for me to love your face right now
I'm waiting, hating, needing, being me
I need you less and less
And every day leads us farther away
From that moment
It's hard for me to hate myself right now
Finally I'm understanding me
One day we may have whole new me's and you's
But first I need to learn to love me too

Then I began to "understand me", learned to love myself and need him less, yet love him more ("I need you less and less every day Yet I've grown to love you even more").
And yes, Love can grow from the last grain :)
So I think this song is trying to say that in order to love someone, you must first learn to love yourself ;)
American born, but still a Mexican.
He says "I need you less and less every day", and goes from having a hard time loving himself to having a hard time hating himself.
So I hoped we could find a new day, cannot live without you

Grew dependent of the person he loved
Ended and had hope to get back together

You gave me the chance, time and again in vain
Now my feelings for you
Every tear, every smile, paid in full
Wrecked the chain, but no longer can I take the pain

After Breakup got back together
Every tear, every smile, paid in full
She was different "Wrecked the chain" was not going to work "no longer can I take the pain"

It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you

After a Breakup its a normal order of stages you go through
First you think and wonder what did YOU do wrong "It's hard for me to love myself right now"
Then you try and blame in on them for your pain "I waited, hated, blamed it all on you"
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Needed to be strong, yet I was always too weak
So again only blamed myself for this state we are in
I will take what you have for me now, it's not too late

Its said you should give a breakup time to think it over and miss you ,and as the saying goes if they love you they will come back but in reality its nothing that easy and more that one ends up trying to contact and doing what ever to get back "Needed to be strong, yet I was always too weak"
As most women love attention and pride she enjoyed it and the response get a life "So again only blamed myself for this state we are in"
End up lose self esteem to a point where you tell them you will do whatever it takes even though she said she does not love you ----> "I will take what you have for me now, it's not too late"

Guy does not really need her that much anymore and has realized its not that bad but still loves her in a special was but does not want to be with her after it all

But first I need to learn to love me too "

Actually, it seems that he comes out of it not blaming anyone, really.
