Yeah at first this song was a little cryptic to me. Cyanide and Downward Spiral, your interpretations helped.
I do see it as his career or his passion sounds more fitting is his life and his thing right now.
She just wants a simple life and he has a different calling basically.
This stanza explained most of it:
"Cause I know what you want
but you’ll just have to wait
if I had it to give
I would give it away
I'm livin' it up
while I’m fallin' from grace
there’s no way, there’s no way
that I’m running away"
I see "while I'm fallin' from grace" if I would take it one step further (since I'm feeling adventurous LOL), would be talking about his time on Earth. Or even perhaps just his time to go out and explore and sin. So while he's "livin' it up" she wants him to live for her.
Also this song looks like its dialogue broken between him and his ex-lover. This stanza seems to come from his lover (and all the other "you left me behind" parts):
"you had to be
the worst for me
I don’t know what to say, so let me be
and now I find you've left me behind
I don’t know what to say,
so nevermind!
