I agree, this song is about regret. More specifically, I think it's about not taking advantage of the opportunities that come, and later feeling awful about it.
"Salt tasting tears
They roll off of my lips
One for each day I'm inside this house
It's a trap
One I can't quite escape so pretend it's the place that I love"
I love that line; I can relate to it so well.
To me, it means he is unhappy about certain circumstances in his life, but he's too scared or lazy or sad to do anything about it. So he pretends that where he is is where he wants to be.
