"Your last words will not be heard
There are too many of them no one deserves
I don't need your love "
This first line makes me feel like my heart is breaking every single time I hear it. It's so beautiful and sad. you can't help but love this song. I think because of the way he says no one deserves her words, the girl is a nasty piece of work.
"Landmines hide in your lines
There's too many maps and not enough signs "
Landmines, or bombs, are in everything she says. I think by this he means that everything she ever told him was a lie. This girl is definitely not honest.
"So lie awake
So wide awake
Cause in my dreams I'm dying
We wait for light
To kill the night
But is it worth me trying?"
He loses sleep over whether or not to take the girl back, whether or not it would be a waste of time for him.
"A deep breath out on the steps
It's only air that you feel in your chest "
This is how he calms down. Maybe he is crying over her, and he is probably trying to reason with himself out on his porch that there is no reason to cry/be upset.
"Okay you staked your claim
It's only blood you have in your veins "
Basically, he is telling the girl that he gets it. She doesn't want him. Fine. But he reminds her that she doesn't need to be so terrible about it, it's ot as though she has ice in her veins.
The next line reiterates him losing sleep over her. He doesn't want to sleep because when he falls asleep, he only has nightmares.
"And it's so late
Where will you stay?
It makes no difference
Cause it's all a dream
And tomorrow I'll wake
Tomorrow I'll wake
It makes no difference
Makes no difference "
They lived together, so he wonders breifly where she will stay if she's leaving him. Then he decides to not care, he decides that "it makes no difference" to him.
"Close your eyes
And the moon will sigh
Is it worth me trying?"
Clearly he still cares for her, and is wondering if it was the right thing to let her go. Pretending not to care when she left was just an act, and now he wonders if he should try to get her back. He wonders if it is worth it.
