My girlfriend just broke up with me after 3 and a half years. We had survived that whole time in a long distance relationship; both of us went to different universities. Every line in this song hits the mark pretty close to our situation.
"I knew who she was, but not anymore"
This can easily happen in long distance relationships. "She just cried to the ruins of time that kept us apart" We sometimes went more than a month without seeing each other at all. "She was put to the test, those that she loved, she had learned to detest" I made the mistake of asking too much from her. I put her to the test by expecting her to make time for me when she was 200 miles away and had the pressures of college all around her. I think she finally couldn't take it anymore and learned to detest me. "My life is good, My love's a mess" To me this says that no matter how good your life is, when you lose the love of your life, nothing else matters much. "Daddy I've got nothing left, what can I do that's for the best?" For me, this could be a cry for help to your earthly father or a spiritual father. I want to do whatever I can to set things right. Anyway, it is very emotional and does make me cry. I love this song.
