To me this song is all about a girl (or Dave himself) suffering from depression and thinking about suicide- and she's had it up to here with everything. She's so deep into it, she's in her own little world, by herself, she's empty and would give anything to feel whole again. She shuts herself off from her friends, family, etc. She's so sick of being on this earth she just wants it to end. Nothing can make her happy anymore because she is so deep into depression. Although she's alive (although there's red blood bleeding inside her, she feels like cold blue ice in her heart.) Meaning, even though she's alive, she feels dead. She prays that someone will help her, prays god will help her-but no one listens. She can't take it all on her own anymore. Maybe if she attempts suicide, maybe someone will realize how much pain and loneliness she is in.
All the colors (positive things) in the world mix to Gray.
My favorite line "she feels like kicking out the windows, and setting fire to this life"-she is so mad about feeling this way she wants to kick out all the windows (maybe so she can finally breathe) and setting fire to this life-she hates who she has become and wants to end it and start over. She's done, or wants to be done with life. Although she doesn't necessarily WANT to die, she wants someone to help her be happy.
This song hit me like a ton of bricks when I first heard it, because I was so where she is in this song. I was done with this life and just wanted it to be over so I could finally breathe and be happy.
