Great song. Here is my break down.
I also believe it is about a relationship between two people.
Verse 1:
And you think you're alone as if I wasn't there
You’re losing your faith in me
It’s a car, it's a crash, it's a death, and you're scared
You just can't escape the scene
He can tell that she is feeling distant, and she thinks he isn't there for her anymore. This is horrible to him, it's a crash, a death. She's scared on how she feels, but she can't get out of the mind set.
Bridge:
Hush now you're insane
Touch my skin, come back again
The sky is falling
He is telling her to hush her fears. It is insane to believe it. Touch him again, and she'll see he is there for her. The sky is falling because because to him it is like the world is ending.
Chorus:
It’s something you cannot fake
This something you will not shake
Just walk away before I look at you
It’s something only you can take
"It" to me is the feeling they both have. The feeling of love or some other unexplainable emotion. The feeling you can't get rid of, and whenever she is near him all the feelings come back. That is why he wants her to look away, so it is easier if they part ways. The feeling is only something she can bring and take away.
Verse 2:
All your words, it's a lie to yourself, it's a home
There’s so much that you can't see
It’s a bomb that can kill everyone, and it blows
You can't even hear me scream
All the things she is saying to herself isn't true. She is lying to herself, but she's been thinking of it so long that it feels like home. All of the lies she is blinded by, she can't see the truth. Her blindness to the real feelings is something that can end the relationship. She won't even be able to hear his side or scream.
Verse 3:
This is only feeling with no thought
Is this love?
What happened to the promises I bought?
Is this love?
This is the culmination of his feelings. He is only thinking of what he feels without analyzing it. He questions if the feeling is love. The "promises" aren't bought with money. It is bought with the time and emotion he invested in the relationship.
