This song is basically about a relationship gone bad...

"Certain things just happen when you make no plans And love can really tear you up and it can break you down " Relationships fall apart when they're aimless, and love- love is so harsh. It tears apart your insides with a simple goodbye.

"Everything you think you know, baby Is wrong " Everything you think about your relationship, all the dreams for the future you have, may never come true. Lost, meaningless dreams.

"Fade to black, I'm sick of trying Took too much and now I'm done It's all over but the crying " She's been trying so hard, but it's just pointless, the relationship is going nowhere. Everything about the relationship is over, except the tears, which never seem to diminish.

Pretty straight forward song, as I see it. But so sad...
