-- I see this song as someone being asked to do something, or change, for another person, and he's sick of it. The person could be whoever you interpret it as: a girl, authority, the world, etc.
When you're asking / Me to walk / In a new direction / I'll be begging / For you to talk / With a true intention
-- So they're asking him to walk in a new direction, with a hidden agenda. He's standing up to them, and wants to know their true intentions.
Falling under / Once again / It's almost time to wake up / And start something
-- He's submitting, even though he doesn't want to. I take the 'almost' as him wanting to stand up to them, but thinking he'll do it later. ((It's like losing weight etc; "I'll exercise tomorrow, I can be lazy today...", but you never do...))
Breath is useless / In this game / This game is damaged / And up in flames
-- And then he says that it's useless to stand up, because the 'game' is corrupted. He could mean life, or just the pressure they're putting on him, etc.
How much longer must we wait? / In this game of patience you can't be late.
-- He's getting fed up with himself. He wants to fight before it's too late.
Bring it outside / For all to see / I'm so hard to tempt
/ Put your mind at ease
-- He wants them to reveal what they're doing to him. He's saying he doesn't succumb as easily as they think, but he's then saying not to worry about it.
I can feel it rising / Here we go again / Deep inside I'm dying / Your first impression has been stained
-- He knows they're coming for him again, and he hates it, cause he knows he never will stand up. His 'first impression' was a good one, but he knows the truth now.
-- Just my thoughts. I love this song. I hope this band will blow up, because they are amazing. Going to see them Friday 13th!
