Okay, so my take of the song is he has made many mistakes, and although he can't erase them, he still regrets them.
And I think he is trying to tell his significant other that he can't forgive himself for his own mistakes so he doesn't expect them to either. But he wonders if he was someone else, or had more money, would that change it and make her love him?
I love this line.
