I am pretty sure it has nothing to do with meeting your "special someone" and everything to do with a tough break up. Anyone thats been through a tough one, would instantly get it. It explains all the feelings you go through. You go from thinking your in love with someone and going to spend your life with them, and then feeling like why were you even with them. Everytime you think about them, its painful, even after time.

"I'm not faithless Just paranoid of getting lost or that I might lose Ignorance is bliss cherish it Pretty neighborhoods you learn to much to hold Believe it not''

This is saying a couple of different things. First after a tough break up you lose hope in relationships. You feel like avoiding them altogether because you don't want to feel that kind of pain again. Not knowing the hurt of love and loss, may be worth not loving at all, and all you see when u see others in love is the good and not the bad, so its misleading to those who have never loved.

"And fight the tears With pretty smiles and lies about the times"

This is saying when your around other or talking to others, you try to hide your pain by acting like things are so good, and making things sound better than they are with lies.

you are also right but yet it could also mean that you have found your true love but you are worried that they will be taken from you. i know this because that is how i interpret this songs lyrics.

I agree with it being about a really tough break-up and trying to get through it. "A year goes by \ And I can't talk about it" shows that even after a year, its too painful to talk about or even think about. It then goes on to repeat that line again, meaning that even after two years, its still too painful to talk about.
