I can kind of relate to the first verse... you overanaylze something, or think about something too much, and it just gets you more and more angry about it.
And he seems to be upset about this person that can "fill his blank heart," but probably won't.
This is about (Damon) who has too much self-consciousness, who needs someone's love, and keep on picturing it, and these thoughts keep on haunting (him). He feels powerless and cannot control his emotions, hence the hatefulness and the stupid things.
He's resigned that there's only one person who can fill his blank heart. Firstly, he tried to think about many substitutes, thought too much about them, said stupid things, and then understood that these things he wanted too much could not replace the one and only one.

The second verse seems to show that for now, as he's lonely and without any perspectives for a change (resignation), he tries to catch every little thing that would make him feel better.
Then, after a while, he might forget to breathe someday, and he'll see what happens. His helplessness trully demotivated him, as well as his thoughts that makes him turn in round, in this vicious circle of understanding why this one person, the only one who could fill his blank heart, left him or didn't want to be with him.
Marvellous song, my favourite of the band. The atmosphere is so sweet, which is paradoxal, as the words are bitter.
My identification with this song is utter.
I'm totally resigned to the fact, that only she can fill my blank heart. But she's far away.
