I'm just gonna break it down into what I think each verse means:
I don't want to hear
another word from you now
I'd rather be wrong
life is mostly what
you don't see anyway
so just look away
but our shadows
never leave us alone
down the bad roads
they will follow us
faithfully home
I don't want to argue anymore, if it'll end it I don't care if I'm wrong. Look away from me and live life. No matter what the past still remains and it always will.
you launched the assualt
with the first cannonball
my soldiers were sleeping
I know that you thought
it would never come down,
down to the wire
it's friendly fire
You brought this on without my knowing. You thought it would never come to this. Friends killing friends.
in your room filled with the things
that you've never done
does anyone really care
your shadow
just wont leave you alone
'cos he knows well
he knows what you've done
You're living a lie, but no one cares. Still your past won't leave you because it is witness to your terrible deeds (launching the assault maybe?)
waves don't wonder
when you're drowning
under the sea
so don't look for me
find her keep her lose her
deserts you in the end
you were my friend
like your shadow
no one knows you as well
as I do
The masses won't care when you're struggling, so don't fall back on me. You go through so much together to have her just ditch you, you regret what she did because you did in fact like her. Just like her "shadow" you have grown to know her just as well.
