I have come a long way where I started from
but I'm still not even close to where I'm going
I can no longer see the shine
that has been lighting up my way
I cannot feel its glowing
The fire in my heart is dying
and the zeal I had is gone
This path that I've chosen's a rocky one
Long, hard and frozen it has become
Each turn that I've taken on the way
has only led me back to Hell
I am dying down… growing weaker now
It could seem that I'm doing fine
but I'm broken to little pieces deep inside
Why did I ever choose to go this way
The question I keep asking myself all the time
I guess it was my instinct for self-destruction
that pointed me down, down this way
The fire in my eyes is dying
and the dream I had is gone
This path that I've chosen's a rocky one
Long, hard and frozen it has become
Each turn that I've taken on the way
has only led me back to Hell
I am dying down… growing weaker now
It could seem that I'm doing fine
but I'm broken to little pieces deep inside
This path that I've chosen's a rocky one
Long, hard and frozen it has become
Each turn that I've taken on the way
has only led me back to Hell
I am dying down… growing weaker now
It could seem that I'm doing fine
but I'm broken to little pieces and broken to little pieces
and i'm broken to little pieces deep inside
but I'm still not even close to where I'm going
I can no longer see the shine
that has been lighting up my way
I cannot feel its glowing
and the zeal I had is gone
Long, hard and frozen it has become
Each turn that I've taken on the way
has only led me back to Hell
I am dying down… growing weaker now
It could seem that I'm doing fine
but I'm broken to little pieces deep inside
The question I keep asking myself all the time
I guess it was my instinct for self-destruction
that pointed me down, down this way
and the dream I had is gone
Long, hard and frozen it has become
Each turn that I've taken on the way
has only led me back to Hell
I am dying down… growing weaker now
It could seem that I'm doing fine
but I'm broken to little pieces deep inside
Long, hard and frozen it has become
Each turn that I've taken on the way
has only led me back to Hell
I am dying down… growing weaker now
It could seem that I'm doing fine
but I'm broken to little pieces and broken to little pieces
and i'm broken to little pieces deep inside

It's such a good song. It's obvious what it's about and I can't see a hidden meaning. We all have our times of depression and difficulties. Sometimes it seems the path we've chosen is wrong and everything's hopeless. I guess this song is about a period like that.
BlackBlanca is pretty right on for this song. The only thing I'd add to it is that the song is about accepting the fact you have noone to blame for yourself when you make a bad decision. The first part says that: by saying he's come a long way but is far from where he's going. It's like he's taken that first step, but has yet to recognize and make good decisions to the caliber he wishes.
