Well, anyways, what does everyone think about the meaning? I stared at it for a while and found all sorts of the usually cliche-ridden lyrics. But after some careful analysis I think it's about a girl that is playing with this dude's heart. He still likes her but it realizes he is getting played around with. She is holding the rope that is tied around his neck, the rope that is slowly choking him. But she is stuck in his heart and he can't get her out. He also realizes that he'll never be able to escape the leash-noose around his neck, he (literally or figuratively) cuts his heart out at the end to set himself free from her, accelerating the process that she is making him go through. That's my interpretation.

I agree with this meaning. I think it means exactly that but i think maybe she isnt playing him, he just cant cope in this relationship with her. Maybe hes unhappy and she isnt and it blinded him to what he wants and needs so cutting her out of his life is the only way he can be set free. Might be wrong, but its just my thought.
