well. i think this song is about two friends, or a couple, and they have both decieved eachother. but, one person has come clean and is apologizing and "taking the fall." and the narrator has not told the other person the things he has done, and even though they're getting closer, he feels like a coward. But i think the other person may think the narrator has done something because of the line "i can't deny/ somehow you're seeing it / so you take the fall"

the narraor is also saying he feels really guilty and is getting upset about it, but he's not sure he'll ever come clean, hence "and i'm breaking after all/ this could last forever."
