Its definitely abt a break up gone wrong. He still feels either hung up on the girl or guilty cos its been years afterwards and he's still not happy ("colors seem to fade"...- everything is dull)
Dont know who made the mistake but he's saying he understands it :
We all got our faults
We get locked in our voids
And make mistakes
Here he's acknowledging the fact we all need to fill in that certain "void" (lack of attention, lack of love (sexual perhaps or emotional) and thats when we make mistakes just to fill that void.
I love how he uses the imagery of a parade to relate with time ("the years they parade"). He's trying to convey how time has now just gone on and on (or in other words, parading- kinda like mocking him) with nothing really making him happy.
