I love this song so much.
Nobody else has put anything of the sort, but it really reminds me of a guy who has done something wrong or is in a really bad situation or is a wanted criminal or something similar and there's a girl who he loves, and she loves him too, but she loves him too much to leave him and he thinks she should go and not be affiliated with him in any way so she won't get as screwed up as him or get hurt.
Cold am I
I'm beside myself because there's no one else
Have I grown so blind?
Only God could save you if you knew your way to the light
He's basically saying that he made a huge mistake being with this girl and that she could stay as she is if she leaves him.
So fly away and leave it behind
Just stay awake
There's nowhere to hide
He wants her to cut off all her connections to him and be alert of any other troubles.
I see you cause you won't get out of my way
I hear you cause you wont quit screaming my name
I feel you cause you won't stop touching my skin
I need you, they're coming to take you away
He loves her so much and she refuses to go but "They" are the bad things about him that could infect her.
Frail and dry
I could lose it all but I cannot recall it's all wrong
Don't cry, clear away this hate
and we can start to make it alright
He could be done for at any moment, and he doesn't want her to pity or sympathize with him, and he thinks the first thing she could do to improve the situation is to go.
So fly away and leave it behind
Return someday with red in your eyes
Again, he wants her to go, and if things go as planned but he does get screwed, she can avenge it eventually, she can "see red" i.e. get angry.

Chorus x2
Yeah, an obscure idea, but it could work.
