The lyrical content is a bit cliche. Amazing song musically, however.
It seems to me that the song is about someone really reserved and shy, feeling like they're "fading away". It's a cry for help for anyone to help them drop their inhibitions (tear down these walls) and for someone to understand that they have so much more depth than they put out on display (You are the only one who knows I'm holding back).
I can relate in my own suburban-middle-class-white-kid kind of way. :P
