i think that this song is about someone who knows that they need God and they are denying it, and frankly, running away from it. without God in our lives, we are hollow inside. We search for things to fill that hole, but nothing ever will, only God can. also, it is saying that by pushing God out, you are causing yourself to stay in a rut that you can get out of if only you let him in. i also think that when it says you've held back love long enough or let love in, that love is implying God, because God is love.
