New Ways

I think that the correct lyrics are "Washed out brain" and "Washed out face" instead of "Worst I bring" and "Worst I face".

I guess most people will think this song is about a relationship between two people, but personally I believe it has nothing to do with that. Let me explain why.

"Washed out brain I have a dirty mind Oh, I need, I need new ways To waste my time I need new ways"

This is clearly about depression, she feels numb ("washed out brain/face, I have a dirty mind" = apathy and negative/torturing thoughts), she's constantly wasting her time (a crippling depression) and it has become so monotonous she needs "new ways" to do so.

"I’m trying to get out Find a subtle way out Not just cross myself out Not just disappear"

She's trying to recover from her depression, find the way out of that dark place. She doesn't want to die, she doesn't want to escape that place by committing suicide ("Not just cross myself out. Not just disappear").

Here comes the interesting part:

"I’ve been trying to stay out But there’s something in you I can’t be without I just need it here"

Most people will argue she doesn't want to be with him, that she's trying to stay out of their relationship but she can't help loving him, she needs him, she can't be without him.

Personally, I think she's not talking about anyone, I believe "you" is personifying depression; she's been trying to not fall into depression, to stay out of that dark place depression is, but at the same time she needs that place, it's home, seductive, tempting... There's something in depression that eventually becomes familiar and though it makes you suffer, you feel tempted to give in, to let yourself fall into the darkness, the isolation, the numbness, the pain, the torturing thoughts, to let yourself derail, be destroyed...
