Lyrically, I agree that this song sounds as if it's about a relationship, which allows it to be interpreted as a connection of any sort between people who are close. The song seems to switch now and again between the thoughts of the two people involved, say A & B. The lyric “I was blind, couldn’t find the true essence of our lifetime without a confession from you” sounds as if the said relationship began to break or “have a downfall” because A was more private about their feelings, causing negative feelings (confusion, shame, uncertainty, etc.) for B, which of course are self-induced. Person A is aware of this, and is the one who begins by saying “You’re taking it too hard”. It is B who says “How could you do such a thing, cause I’ve paid every mistake building a void impossible to replace”. It seems like an afterthought of this downfall; B asks “how could you do such a thing” when it is actually B themselves who has placed this whole situation on his/her own shoulders, and therefore causes undue hardship to themselves through immense guilt of losing someone they’ve made out to be irreplaceable.
That segment is my favorite part of the song, not only because of that lyric, but the solo that follows is just killer. Although it’s short, it’s very tasteful, and I especially like the middle section: the 1st time the guitar note becomes elongated, almost slurred (similar to who the solo is ended) and then seemingly spins out of control. The whole thing has that depressive-yet-uplifting feel to it.
