One of my favorite songs to belt out when I'm alone in the car. And it can still make my get teary.
I think the first verse is sung to someone, like the singer is accusing someone, and instructing her to "look around" at her life instead of getting complacent. Then she leaves, and through the second verse, the singer slowly accepts the blame, and by the end the chorus is sung for oneself.
As an aside, it's, "And SOMETIMES / In the midst of all my crimes." Not "Something."
