This song is one of my favorites. I see it as what I went through with a past relationship.
"and you still don't know but I found comfort in this bottle and your out of site, out of mind and nowhere close to being, sober " -He's trying to drink her memories away, but he's ashamed of himself for doing it, so he doesn't want her to know.
"you still are what I think" "A favorite of my dreams" -He sees her as some saint, even though he knows in the back of his mind that she isn't.
"Don't ever let me see those words on your lips, it's just me, it's just me" -While she's sitting there trying to make him feel better, he's telling her not to lie to just be honest about why they broke up.
"I hope there's still a piece of me upon your bedroom floor where you curl up at night" -He hopes that she still thinks of him and misses him at times.
"So both of us saw what it was, everything you were every time" -He realizes how she is but he still refuses to believe it.
But that's just my point of view on this song. The best thing about Lydia is that their lyrics can be taken many ways depending on your perception of it. That's one of the things that makes this music so beautiful.
