this song is about a "good" friend who left someone hanging.
you sat and watched
as I nearly destroyed myself
never had I felt so betrayed
that you would sacrifice my life
for no more than your comfort
"nearly destroyed myself" means someone made bad choices
"that you would sacrifice my life for no more than your comfort" means that the "friend" just stood around or actively participated in "destroying" this person. or he left him during a rough time.
and now your love means nothing
nothing to me
your love means nothing to me
nothing to me
the person no longer trusts the friend
you are a coward
the antithesis of a friend
take action before there is
no one left to defend
telling the friend how much he sucks and to change his ways so he doesn't hurt other people the same way he hurt this person
I would have stood by you
I would have stood by you
right to the gates of hell
he is telling the friend he would have stuck with him through thick and thin. unlike the friend, this person would not bail on him and leave him to suffer.
