I think it's more about an ex who killed himself as told from the current boyfriend.
"As the second best he'll become"
I reckon she moved on and found a new guy and it tore him apart because of it.
The way Jacob says "as cold as those first nights alone" may be about how low he felt the night she wasn't in his bed with him. The first night after a break up and now the night where he realises she's moved on. He feels worthless again.
I know that when an ex of mine moved on before i had, it hurt quite a bit.
The sleep deep bit of it could mean either try to sleep, don't feel it's your fault for moving on or it could be the ex's thoughts to her in a sort of "forget about me" way of thinking.
