This song is about neglect.
It's about a girl who keeps waiting for the love of her life to give her what she needs, what she wants from him and he won't or perhaps he can't just yet. He's focusing more on other aspects of his life and is believing that love with hold them through even the toughest times, but she is starting to fade from him and the relationship is deteriorating. She's tired of waiting, tired of pulling her hair with the frustration of trying to be patient and considerate but she begins to hate the lack of admiration for her patience.
At the same time there is another man offering her what she wants and she's almost willing to give herself to him because she needs it so much but the man she is looking for it from cannot offer it to her.
Overall, this album is about giving up, but not without a fight. This song is a perfect example lyrically.
