Lyric discussion by jesusfreak.ding 

wow. such a beautiful, heartfelt song (and i've only heard the live performances) its a song about leaning on your friends through the hard times and not trying to brave everything yourself because your friends have probably gone through the same things and you'd do yourself a favor by seeking help from them.

I think its a bit deeper than that though. You are half right however I think that the person in question in this context is closer to a lover than anything else. But that may be just me seeing it that way simply because I am having trouble with someone I love now, simply being unable to be as near them as I wish to be with all my heart. And I can't really talk to them about it either since she is with someone else. Its rather complicated as said.
