I think it is about a relationship that didn't work out. She gave all she could but it left her so sore because she gave so much but it still didn't work out. If it were death of the other I don't she would be sore about putting so much into the relationship. Also, she asks "was it all a waste of time?", if her significant other would have died I don't think she would consider it "a waste". She states "she knew" she would lose "you", unless he had some sort of terminal illness, she wouldn't know that. But it does give you something to think about that maybe they knew he was going to die. Just a thought.

I think you're right. The only thing that died is the relationship. Anyway I think this is one of the songs that explains in the best way how you feel after a break up...
