i think this is about how he realises he was acting blind when he was with her, and realises how she manipulated him "I'd throw my heart into your fire, when I was blind And you knew that I'd come crawling back" as if he was blind from love, as "love is blind etc etc " although he may have tried to leave, he thinks she knew hed come back cause he relies on her cause she has such a hold on him. he knows he must leave now and although it wil hurt him he knows one day he'll be alright and will be able to not depend on ehr, cause he will force himself not to. "And I know someday I'll be ok And I know someday I'll stand again But this won't be the end of me"

the chorus seems to be that he is searching for something to take his mind off her so tht he will be alright. maybe he is looking for a new partner.

"But I'm sure you're never gonna change 'Cause you've learned this all before And I know that you'll come crawling back But I swear you'll never find me there"

she realises shes wrong andhas treated him like shit and says shell change, but he knows she wont cause its who she is, so now she wants him more than she thought she could but he wont have her when she comes "crawling back" and wont be able to find him.

when it says"what was i awaiting for..." i think this is like he was with her for years "years went by" but wanted to leave for a while, seemingly waiting for something, but now he doesnt know what. he realises he has wasted part of his life on her due to fear of her controlling him. but she hasnt totally cut him down "cause im still alive" and he just wants to get over her and move on.

"you'll break away" i think ths is him telling her she will be okay eventually, but i am not sure he cares that much any more, cause he's alright now. "for now i'm fine."
