I love this song and can't wait to hear it in high quality.

I'm pretty sure the song is about a breakup. The most powerful verse for me is that second one

"I took off my clothes and I ran to the ocean Looking for somewhere to start anew And when I was drowning in that holy water All I could think of was you"

It sounds almost like he was trying to commit suicide... He wanted a new start, but he couldn't leave his past behind.

The chorus makes it seem like he's given up hope of starting over. "Love is the end"... Once you're in love, that's it, you only get one chance.
