Ed Robertson was rumored to be having an affair a while back, and I think that is what this song is about. He knows no one should feel sorry for him, but hopes that someone can save him from all of the guilt.
The beginning of the song suggests that he was caught by news reporters/tabloids with another woman, and his wife found out through that. He goes on to say, "flashing lights couldn't warn her/paint myself in a corner."
I just love the line, "Before they ever let the other half find out."
