These are the lyrics to the older version of Plasma. Off of the EP that they independently released in 2000; this version is different from the version on the self-titled album. It's cool to listen to both versions and see how they switched the chorus and the bridge.
As far as the meaning; I think it's definitely coming from his point of view. He's asking if they can go their separate ways, and you get the feeling that the relationship just isn't working for either of them anymore. In this version of the song, he seems to be completely done with her ('And I will be there to see it up in flames/Fates rearranged'), and they completely changed this part on the self-titled version to 'And I will be here cause I don't mind waiting', which is more moderate. I also think the line "Sometimes I think that these chains can be broken" is reference to their relationship as a chain holding him down.
This is truly an excellent song; it's my favorite Sinch song so far. And I've been there before, if I was any kind of lyricist I bet I'd write something very similar...
