The lyrics at the end, from the man himself, are actually :
How could I live with this weight, you keep on pushing on me,
you say it's never too late, I'm afraid it is though for me
Now everything that you say, I cut my heart upon it,
you only pushed me away, till I was way beyond it.
I'm moving on without you, there's no more fight left in me,
I'm breaking down all the walls, you slowly built around me.
Why do you ask for my trust, when you´re not worthy of it?
I find it hard to adjust, to the lines you´re drawing for me.
This song is pretty self explanatory really.
It's about being unable to remain true to someone and cheating on them. Perhaps not in the literal sense of cheating on someone with another person, but a deeper, more emotionally routed cheating - i.e you don't love or want them anymore, but you just can't tell them. Either because you don't want to hurt them, or more likely, because you're too arrogant and selfish to risk being lonely yourself when the inevitable split occurs.
It's an insecure song too, from the writer's point of view. And a song about passing your insecurity and trust issues onto someone else and tieing them to you, when in reality, you're just using them as a prop, or an anchor.
