First of all... this is an AMAZING song, and there should be far more comments. :-(
Secondly... the acoustic version of this song is EVEN MORE AMAZING and there's an extra verse in there, somewhere, I do believe. It's hard to understand him tho, and I can't seem to find that section in lyrics anywhere online :-(
Thirdly... my song interpretation O:-)
I agree with mavrick, it seems there was a breakup, and obviously, he still misses her, and feels all awkward and confused as to 1) why she broke up with him, and 2)why she cant seem to be able to let him goand move on. It's evident she's still interested--- telling him she still cares, etc.
I think she may even be taking him for granted. Here's why: "And you've been trying to pick me up like a ghost from the past/But you found that it's hard with your blood stained hands/Yeah it's real hard to get a firm grip"
I get the impression that she calls him up, and thinks that he's just going to be this person that is always going to be there for her, this person she can fall back on whenever she pleases. But at the same time, she's finding that he's putting up a fight and resisting, that the process is harder than she expects... Her "bloodstained hands" tells me she's to blame for why they aren't together in the first place, and that he won't allow her to mistreat him again. He's confused by her actions... confused by the fact tha she won't let him go... confused by her slamming down the phone, yet telling him she still cares, and this is what I believe he means by "my head's lost". However despite being confused, he is trying to get over her, and is standing his ground, sticking to his guns... which is why, despite that fact that his head is lost... he is HEARTSTRONG!!!
