From the lyrics I'd guess that the song is about the writer who becomes depressed because of unrequited love - "cut open this heart, now steal away my last beat of hope"
Whenever the writer sees the one he loves he is "reminded of living" but also of his pain - "the lack of blood that has brought me to my knees"
I think suicide is involved. The writer kills himself and the person he loves has only his memory or "reflection" which bleeds through their hands when they think of the his death.
The person whom the writer loves tries to lie and bring him back with false hope, but they realise anything they say is too late.
The writer's loved one prays for the strength to forget about him. "pray for the strength to let me float away"
The writer hopes for something good in the afterlife as he drifts away.
